Are there private contracting providers who do not participate with medicare or medicaid payments?
Providers are not required to participate in either the Medicare or Medicaid program. In addition, providers are required to tell you when you present your Medicare or Medicaid cards that they do not accept the programs (generally this is on the paperwork where they ask for the insurance information). If they render treatment and you have presented your id cards prior to the visit (and they did not otherwise advise you or have you sign something that they don't participate) then contact Medicare at 1-800-Medicare to report the provider.
