Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: GAO discussed the effectiveness of the Medicare Secondary Payer (MSP) provisions, focusing on insurance carrier contractors' efforts to recover mistaken Medicare payments after determining that beneficiaries have other insurance. GAO noted that: (1) carriers did little to recover Medicare funds from other insurers; (2) cutbacks in MSP funds hampered the contractor attempts to recover mistaken payments; (3) contractors may have paid $5.5 million to $8.8 million in mistaken Medicare payments; (4) one contractor did not attempt to recover the claims it paid during a 2-week period when information on 50,000 beneficiaries was deleted from its processing system; (5) the Health Care Financing Administration (HCFA) did not regularly collect or require contractors to keep management information on mistaken payments or the dollar value potentially due back to Medicare; (6) potentially $200 million in mistaken payments could be collected from insurers; (7) HCFA recently reallocated $3 million to contractors to pursue and recover payments; (8) a recently initiated Internal Revenue Service/Social Security Administration data match could identify several additional mistaken payments; (9) millions of dollars of claims might remain unrecovered due to Department of Health and Human Services regulations limiting the time for recovering mistaken payments; and (10) payment recoveries could considerably exceed the dollars spent on collection procedures.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A coauthor of the New York Times bestselling guide to Social Security Get What’s Yours authors an essential companion to explain Medicare, the nation’s other major benefit for older Americans. Learn how to maximize your health coverage and save money. Social Security provides the bulk of most retirees’ income and Medicare guarantees them affordable health insurance. But few people know what Medicare covers and what it doesn’t, what it costs, and when to sign up. Nor do they understand which parts of Medicare are provided by the government and how these work with private insurance plans—Medicare Advantage, drug insurance, and Medicare supplement insurance. Do you understand Medicare’s parts A, B, C, D? Which Part D drug plan is right and how do you decide? Which is better, Medigap or Medicare Advantage? What do you do if Medicare denies payment for a procedure that your doctor says you need? How do you navigate the appeals process for denied claims? If you’re still working or have a retiree health plan, how do those benefits work with Medicare? Do you know about the annual enrollment period for Medicare, or about lifetime penalties for late enrollment, or any number of other key Medicare rules? Health costs are the biggest unknown expense for older Americans, who are turning sixty-five at the rate of 10,000 a day. Understanding and navigating Medicare is the best way to save health care dollars and use them wisely. In Get What’s Yours for Medicare, retirement expert Philip Moeller explains how to understand all these important choices and make the right decisions for your health and wealth now—and for the future.

Download or read book Care Without Coverage written by Institute of Medicine and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2002-06-20 with total page 213 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many Americans believe that people who lack health insurance somehow get the care they really need. Care Without Coverage examines the real consequences for adults who lack health insurance. The study presents findings in the areas of prevention and screening, cancer, chronic illness, hospital-based care, and general health status. The committee looked at the consequences of being uninsured for people suffering from cancer, diabetes, HIV infection and AIDS, heart and kidney disease, mental illness, traumatic injuries, and heart attacks. It focused on the roughly 30 million-one in seven-working-age Americans without health insurance. This group does not include the population over 65 that is covered by Medicare or the nearly 10 million children who are uninsured in this country. The main findings of the report are that working-age Americans without health insurance are more likely to receive too little medical care and receive it too late; be sicker and die sooner; and receive poorer care when they are in the hospital, even for acute situations like a motor vehicle crash.
