File all claims promptly. If the insurance company requests this, make a copy of it and write down the date you send the copy to the insurance company. Keep copies of any information you have concerning services received, the dates of services, and the persons who provided the services. You do not have to submit your claims to Medicare. Your doctor, supplier, or other Medicare provider must submit claims to Medicare for you.
Some insurers have an automatic claims filing program.
This means that the insurer gets claims directly from the Medicare fiscal intermediary. There may be a charge for this service. For more information on filing claims, you may want to contact the County or Tribal Benefit Specialist at your Regional Area Agency on Aging . Under Wisconsin law, all Medicare supplement and Medicare select insurance policies must include an appeal procedure for claims denials. This procedure will be explained in your policy and Outline of Coverage.
