Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is responsible for protecting Medicare's fiscal integrity. Medicare Secondary Payer (MSP) situations exist when Medicare is a secondary payer to other insurers, including non-group health plans (NGHP), which include auto or other liability insurance, no-fault insurance, and workers' compensation plans. CMS attempts to recover Medicare payments made that were the responsibility of NGHPs, but CMS has not always been aware of these MSP situations. In 2007, legislation added mandatory reporting requirements for NGHPs that should enable CMS to be aware of these situations. NGHPs reported concerns about the MSP process, and CMS delayed the start of mandatory reporting by NGHPs, in part because of these concerns. This report examines (1) how the initial implementation of mandatory reporting for NGHPs has affected the workload of and payments to MSP contractors, and Medicare savings, and (2) key challenges within the process for MSP situations involving NGHPs and the steps CMS is taking to address those challenges. GAO reviewed relevant MSP-related documents and data on MSP costs, workload, Medicare savings, and contractor performance. GAO also interviewed CMS officials, MSP contractor officials, and NGHP stakeholders."

Book excerpt: Medicare is the nationâ€TMs health insurance program for qualifying individuals who are 65 and older, disabled, and those with End Stage Renal Disease (ESRD). Generally, Medicare is the “primary payerâ€ŗ â€" that is, it pays health claims first, and if a beneficiary has other insurance, that insurance may fill in all or some of Medicareâ€TMs gaps. However, in some situations the Medicare Secondary Payer (MSP) rules prohibit Medicare from making payments for any item or service when payment has been made or can reasonably be expected to be made by a third-party payer. Under certain conditions, the law makes Medicare the secondary payer to insurance plans and programs for beneficiaries covered through (1) a group health plan based on either their own or a spouseâ€TMs current employment; (2) auto and other liability insurance; (3) no-fault liability insurance; and (4) workersâ€TM compensation situations, including the Black Lung program. The purpose of the MSP program is to shift costs from Medicare to private sources of payment, thus reducing Medicare expenditures. Additionally, the Medicare statutes exclude Medicare coverage for items and services paid for directly or indirectly by a government entity, subject to certain limitations. This includes the Department of Veterans Affairs, among others. The circumstances detailing when Medicare is primary or secondary are discussed in this report. The law authorizes several methods to identify cases when an insurer other than Medicare is the primary payer and to facilitate recoveries when incorrect Medicare payments have been made. One such method is the data match program, where Medicare recipients are matched against data contained in Social Security Administration and Internal Revenue Service files to identify cases in which a working beneficiary (or working spouse) may have employer-based health insurance coverage. Most recently Congress passed the Medicare, Medicaid, and SCHIP Extension Act of 2007 (P.L. 110-173) expanding information requirements for group health plans, liability insurance (including self-insurance), no fault insurance, and workersâ€TM compensation laws and plans. These entities must submit information to the Secretary of HHS to enhance efforts for coordination of benefits and for any applicable recovery claims. Efforts by both the federal government and private citizens to use the MSP as a vehicle to recover payments made on behalf of beneficiaries for treatment of tobacco-related illnesses to date have not been successful. This report will be updated as necessary to reflect legislative changes.
