How To Receive

Details on how to apply

  1. Receive services from a provider that is able to bill Medicare.

  2. Ask that the provider bill both Medicare and Medigap.

  3. Review any bills your loved one receives to ensure that both Medicare and Medigap have paid their portions.

    • If either has not paid, ask the provider to resend the bill to them.

    • If both have paid, but you feel that there is an error (i.e., they didn't pay as much as they should have or you have questions), contact Medicare* or the Medigap insurance provider directly.

  4. Remit any remaining costs to the provider that were not covered by Medicare or Medigap.

*For specific billing questions and questions about claims, medical records, or expenses, log into the Medicare account, or call us at 1-800-MEDICARE (1-800-633-4227).

Availability
