Medicare Reimbursement Requirement Attorneys

Satisfying Medicare’s Conditional Payment Lien

For more than 25 years, Medicare has maintained the legal right to compel reimbursement for medical treatment paid that arguably should have been paid by liability, no-fault or workers’ compensation insurance carriers. Until recently, that right was not universally enforced and often overlooked.

Over the past several years, the federal government has enforced this statutory right. Frequently, this results in a substantial delay in resolving claims while awaiting a conditional payment lien letter. A detailed understanding of these requirements, and various entities involved, is necessary to swiftly and effectively resolve claims.
