MEDICARE COMPLIANCE & MEDICARE SET-ASIDE SERVICES
WHAT TOOLS ARE YOU USING TO PROTECT YOUR FIRM AND YOUR CLIENTS?
DETERMINE IF THE MEDICARE SECONDARY PAYER Act APPLIES AND MEDICARE SET-ASIDE SERVICES
Knowing whether your client is on Medicare or will be Medicare-eligible within 30 months of the settlement date is the first step in avoiding penalties for non-compliance. If the MSPA applies, then action must be taken to protect Medicare’s interests. Medicare beneficiaries who fail to consider Medicare’s interests risk losing a portion, if not all of their settlement proceeds. Moreover, their attorneys may also face significant financial penalties.
Our compliance experts provide free case consultations to determine whether the MSPA applies, and if so, we help ascertain the best course of action.
