Medicare Appeals: What to Do When You are Denied Care Under Medicare

Medicare Appeals: What to Do When You Are Denied Care Under Medicare will be held on Monday, April 22, 2024 at 12 noon.

Medicare reliably covers a wide range of medical services but a lot of people experience times when Medicare or a provider tells them that a service is not covered. These determinations are not always correct, and there are steps (e.g., Appeal Rights) one can take to have these determinations reviewed and often revised.  

Curious to learn more? Join representatives from Arlington's State Health Insurance and Assistance Program (SHIP) to learn about Medicare Coverage and Appeals. Within their presentation, representatives will discuss Medicare Basic Appeals, help understanding Medicare benefits and options, how to take the first steps in filing an appeal, and finding help in the process.
