I hate filling out papers --
The usual disabled parking, disabled hunters, FMLA, back to work, etc., all benefit patients, so I see no reason not to charge them for the service. Except that they won't pay.
So I say "in order t make sure I fill out the form correctly you will need to make an office visit and we will fill it out together". Then I charge an office call.

Insurance companies sometimes require extensive, exhaustive forms for long term care, etc -- they have to come in for a visit.

Record reviews -- we can usually insist that the insurance company pay.
Home health forms -- supposedly you can get paid for supervising home health but we haven't had much luck billing it.
