Taking Kaiser Business Rep test

I answered the questions Third party Liability? Not sure what it means on the medical side of Insurance billing? Thanks very much. Denise, Yes - TPL does stand for Third Part Liability. The CMS(Centers for Medicare & Medicaid) defines TPL as: "...the legal obligation of third parties, i.e., certain individuals, entities, or programs, to pay all or part of the expenditures for medical assistance furnished under a State plan." They have a pretty extensive discussion on it here. Hope this helps - Thanks, Gina
