I Will Stop Taking Medicare As Of January 1st
2011-12-21 02:52:00 Dear United States House of Representatives and Senate: I really hope that you enjoy your Christmas break going back home to your families. While you're home, I really hope that you will hear from those constituents who will be affected by the 27.4 percent Medicare physician pay reduction that is schedule to take effect January 1st. I really hope that the American Academy of Family Physicians, the American Medical Association, the main stream media, social media, and other outlets start to cover stories of patients who will lose access to their physicians because of those physicians who will choose to no longer accept Medicare as health insurance. Did you know that one in four patients seen by Family Physicians are on Medicare? Did you know that for some Family Physicians, Medicare comprises as much as 8 in 10 of their patients? (source) What would happen if your pay was cut by nearly 30%? Oh yeah, I forgot. Government never gets a cut. The Federal Government continues to g...

Medicare History
2010-10-28 01:22:00 by onBeing Medicare History  Medicare history dates back to 1945 when President Harry Truman first asked Congress to establish a national health insurance scheme. His plan was for all people to receive comprehensive and prepaid medical insurance through the Social Security System. As the years passed, the field of recipients was narrowed until it was only social security recipients who stood to benefit. When it was discovered that only 56% of people aged 65 or older had health insurance, President John F. Kennedy lobbied for health insurance for the aged. However, the Medicare program provision of social healthcare for the poor and aged did not become law until 1965. On July 30 President Lyndon Johnson signed Medicare and Medicaid into law as part of his “Great Society” and ex President Truman was the first person to receive a Medicare card in recognition of his role in establishing the program. Approximately 19 Million people enrolled in the system during the first ye...

Still Trying To Mend Medicare
2008-07-10 15:47:00 The New York Times reported yesterday that?Congressional investigators said Tuesday that Medicare had paid tens of millions of dollars to suppliers improperly using identification numbers of doctors who died years ago.The government has no reliable way to spot claims linked to dead doctors, many of whom are still listed as active Medicare providers though they died 10 or 15 years ago, the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations said.And of course, ?no one could have predicted? that, right?Well, this story from last January tells us that Center for Medicare and Medicaid Services director Herb Kuhn (a former lobbyist, of course), enacted a new Medicare competitive bidding program for all manner of medical supplies, with ?market rates? used as a basis for accepting bids (which the CMS anticipated to be lower) versus government-established prices.And ?The Bush administration characterizes the program as an attempt to inject market forces into Medicare and reduce federal spending...

Lifetime Medical Costs of Obesity Are Unlikely to Spur Obesity Prevention E
2008-05-30 12:31:00 Even with shorter life expectancies, the lifetime medical costs for obese individuals are greater than costs for non-obese individuals, but those costs are unlikely to spur obesity prevention efforts, according to a new study published by researchers at RTI International and Merck & Co. The study, published on-line in the journal Obesity, found that lifetime medical costs for moderately obese 20-year-olds range between $5,000 and $21,000 more than costs for normal weight individuals. For individuals with greater levels of obesity, the costs are higher, ranging from $15,000 to $29,000 more than for normal weight individuals. Obese White females had the highest lifetime medical costs for both groups. However, the authors note that these costs are unlikely to generate significant investments in obesity prevention efforts."Because individuals switch jobs every four to five years, employers are unlikely to reap the financial benefits of successful obesity interventions...

Swimming In A Sea Of Medicare Fraud
2008-04-21 23:16:00 (The post title relates to a quote from Dem U.S. House member Jim Cooper of Tennessee below.)This Parade Magazine article tells us?A whopping $70 billion out of the estimated $400 billion budgeted for Medicare in 2008 may disappear this year due to fraud and mismanagement. The taxpayer-funded system to cover health care for Americans aged 65 or older is projected to lose that amount, which is equivalent to $233 for every American.?Defrauding Medicare is easy and safe,? says (Harvard University?s Malcolm) Sparrow (who studies Medicare fraud). ?The spending is huge. The spending on controls is minimal. Bills are paid and processed by computers, and no human sees them.? In a recently reported case, one firm billed Medicare $170 million for fake HIV drug infusions. Dozens of companies charged a total of $142 million for unnecessary medical supplies, such as prosthetic limbs. Because of repeat invoicing, $5 million was spent on a single wheelchair.And what does Bushco say in response??We...

Social security/Medicare Watch: 2008
2008-03-30 19:52:00 Social Security and Medicare trustees' 2008 annual report was released recently.There are no big surprises in the report, but I find it fascinating to read about the projections for Social security and Medicare for the future. It is true that both programs are in financial trouble, but the situation is not anywhere as bad as some people think. Especially among 20 and 30 somethings, it has become fashionable to dismiss these "government programs".First, about the state of Social security: For years, the Social Security program has been taking in more in payroll taxes from existing workers than it needed to fund benefits. The government borrowed that surplus and promised to pay it back with interest by issuing special issue bonds to the program.The federal government will have to start paying back what it owes the Social Security trust fund in 2017 so the program can continue paying 100% of benefits. The trust fund will run dry by 2041. Without that cushion, Social Security wou...

Save time by not calling Medicare on denied claims
2008-03-20 20:05:00 Time is money and calling insurance carriers some consider is a waste of time. I don't mind calling the insurance carriers but I normally do my own research on the claim prior to placing the call.I find that reading Explanation of Benefits can be tricky for some people and I think in my next blog I will write about EOB's and how to read them but for now let's look at some tricks in reading Medicare's EOB's.Medicare says that these questions are becoming their top tiered questions -Call: CO-16 this code usually means the claim denied as unprocessable because information was missing or invalidResolution: Review the next Remittance Advice code under the CO-16 for the reason why the claim was denied.Call: I'm working from a reportResolution: Medicare would like clients to review the Remittance Advice tied to the Explanation of Benefits or Electronic Remittance Advice prior to calling on any claim (this means they would like you to review documentation supplied prior to calling the...
What is a PTAN number?
2008-03-20 19:55:00 When calling Medicare you will need to know your doctors Provider Transaction Access Number or PTAN. In short this is the doctors current legacy provider Number with Medicare.I am not sure why they needed to make this step so confusing for billing offices (i.e. changing the name of it and when you ask them what it is they won't tell you making it seem mysterious) but if you don't have your PTAN number you aren't going to get assistance with Medicare.In order to process your phone calls quickly it's best to have this information ready to shoot off:*Provider Transaction Access Number (PTAN)* The name of the office - This must be specific to the PTAN reported* The Health Insurance Claim Number (HICN) of the patient in question* The patient?s name as it appears on the Medicare card* The date of service in question* Any Remarks codes and descriptions from the Standard Provider Remittance (SPR) for the claim in question* Your question* Your contact information like telephone # and ext...

When to get Flu Shots
2008-03-20 16:22:00 Eeach year we hear on the news, radio, internet to get your flu shot as early as possible before they run out. Well, this year maybe a good time to get a flu shot if you haven't already.I have been talking to a lot of patients (while collecting on their outstanding balances - I am in the medical billing industry) and they are telling me nasty stories about this horrible flu that is going around. It includes things like dizziness, diaherea, stomach issues and not being able to go to work for 3-5 days. Of course, sometimes I wonder why patients tell someone over the phone who called to collect on their outstanding bills about having to run to the bathroom, not going to work because what do you do sit on the toilet all day.... (gross)So you maybe asking yourself when do you get a flu shot? Flu shots in the US are given late October through March; but flu season can last into the month of May.Who should get flu shots?*All members of a medical office should be given a flu shot*Anyone w...
Medicare Supplement
2008-03-19 17:48:00 When I was hospitalized several months ago, I was glad I had Medicare but as expected, I have paid the remaining hospital bills which were usually more than what they have taken cared of. So, I was able to get more out from my own pocket.Back then, I wondered if they had a medicare supplement so that when emergency time comes again, I will pay lesser. And about a few months later while I was surfing, I came to check on an American company that I appreciate very much. They offer mature men and women a medicare supplement to help lessen the bills in time of hospitalization. I read their benefits and I should say that it is a really good deal. How I wished we had one here in the Philippines and then it would be easier for me too.
