Balance billing may occur when a patient receives a bill for an episode of care previously believed to be in-network and therefore covered by the insurance company, or when an insurance company contributes less money than expected for a medical service.
Griffin Name Meaning. Welsh: from a medieval Latinized form, Griffinus, of the Welsh personal name Gruffudd (see Griffith). English: nickname for a fierce or dangerous person, from Middle English griffin âgryphonâ (from Latin gryphus, Greek gryps, of Assyrian origin). Irish: Anglicized (part translated) form of Gaelic Ã³ GrÃ­obhtha âdescendant of GrÃ­obhthaâ, a personal name from grÃ­obh âgryphonâ.
1 Some have disputed the origin of the name âgrogâ being from Admiral Vernonâs nickname of âOld Grogâ due to the fact that Daniel Defoe supposedly used the word in one of his works in 1718. 2  However, this is incorrect, the actual word cited that he used was âgingerâ, not âgrogâ.
