Download or read book Hurry Up and Wait Our Broken Medicare Appeal System written by Bob Soltis and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2015-07-30 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the last four years, the Chief Judge's office at the Office of Medicare Hearings and Appeals has squandered millions of our tax dollars hiring HQ staff instead of worker bees. It affects all of us, not just those enrolled in Medicare. Hurry Up and Wait relies on the perspective its author gained presiding over more than 3,500 Medicare hearings as an administrative law judge. It gives an overview of Medicare, explains the appeal process, shows how mismanagement at OCALJ and poor work by CMS contractors created a 600,000 case backlog, analyzes proposals to fix the problem, provides real solutions, and shows you how to make your voice heard to make much needed changes in the system. A portion of the proceeds are donated to worthy causes, such as the Center for Medicare Advocacy, and Save Lakewood Hospital. Note: You can buy a book without setting up a Lulu account. Thank you.
