Signature on File in Medical Billing
Signature on file (SOF) refers to the practice of storing a patient’s signed consent for services and billing electronically.
Signature on File in Medical Billing Explained
In medical billing, SOF allows providers to submit claims without requiring the patient’s physical signature for each service. The provider indicates that the patient’s consent is already on file, streamlining the billing process.
For example, a provider submits claims with “signature on file” noted, indicating that the patient has previously authorized the provider to bill for services.
