What explains Medicare payments and denials?
The EOB (Explanation of Benefits) is what explains Medicare's payments and denials. Sometimes it is referred to as an EOP (Explanation of Payment). This document will show all items filed on a particular claim for a particular provider. It will show which items were covered or noncovered and why, which items were denied and why, and which items were paid. It will also show the patient's responsibility as far as deductible and coinsurance goes. If the patient has a Medicare supplement or just a secondary plan and Medicare is aware who you have chosen, they will "crossover" the claim to the secondary. This means they will automatically send a notification to the secondary payor to let them know how much Medicare allowed (the total amount the provider should receive from Medicare, other insurance companies and the patient), and how much is being left to the patient/secondary.
When you file the secondary claim with the primarys EOB months later can the secondary claim past timely filing if claim was filed soon after receiving payment from primary?
