I've never worked in the healthcare field, but I do work for a company whose main product is data matching used extensively in the healthcare industry. If a doctor has my name, DOB, address, phone number, employer name and insurance carrier, group number and insured ID number, they really don't need my SSN to submit a claim. If they do, then the insurance company seriously needs to get a better data-matching algorithm.
