QMEM &amp;lt;v 2.0&amp;gt; calculates Provider Write-off as Amount Billed minus Amount Allowed. With other insurers My Responsibility is Amount Allowed minus Insurance Payments.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;If hospital charges, for example, $10,000 and Medicare approves $10,000 and pays $2,000 but patient only resposible for $952, say, how do QMEM users account for the $7048 difference?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;A. State lower Amount Allowed so Write-Off takes care of difference?&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;B. Put the $7K as Insurance Payment using a fake insurer such as &amp;quot;Extra write-off&amp;quot;?..</description>
