With Original Medicare, doctors and suppliers are required by
law to file Medicare claims for covered services. But with
Medicare Advantage Plan (Part C), these plans don't have to file
claims because Medicare pays these private insurance companies
a set amount each month.
Medicare claims must be filed no later that 12 months (1 full
calendar year) after the date when you received the service. If
a claim is not filed within this time limit, Medicare can't pay
its share.
A Medicare Summary Notice is mailed out every 3 months. Check the
summary and make sure claims are being filed timely or check on
mymedicare.gov. If there is a problem contact your doctor or
supplier and ask them to file a claim.
If they don't file a claim call 1 800-medicare for information.
In very rare cases you might have to file a claim.
We specialize in Medicare Advantage plans and Medicare Supplement plans so contact our
