You are correct, if I understand Florida office processes as they have been shared. In NH and Massachusetts we delivered medical care and billed Primary and Secondary insurances. Our office receptionist team would check qualifications and the patient would be told what and what wouldn’t be covered.

Circumstances can affect this though. Emergency care vs a scheduled choice options change the whole dynamic. Myself, I often wrote off billing if someone didn’t pay for a treatment because it was on us. It worked out in taxes I was told from our accounting staff. I don’t know of a single doctor that would refuse emergency care to save a life.
