How do I check the status of a Medicare claim?

To review the progress of Medicare Part A (Hospital Insurance) or Medicare Part B (Medical Insurance) claims

– Sign in to (or establish) your confidential Medicare account. Typically, you can view a claim within a day after it’s been processed by Medicare.
Inspect your Medicare Summary Notice (MSN). The MSN is a statement sent to individuals with Original Medicare every quarter. It details:
– All services or items billed to Medicare under Part A and Part B in a three-month interval
– The amount that Medicare has settled
– The potential maximum charge that you could be responsible for to the provider
– Utilize Medicare’s Blue Button after signing into your Medicare account to be able to download and keep records of your Part A and Part B claims data. Discover additional insights about Medicare’s Blue Button.

To verify the progression of Medicare Advantage Plan (Part C) or other Medicare Health Plans

– Reach out to your plan provider. Obtain your plan’s contact details through a Tailored Search (found under General Search), or look up the information by the plan’s name.

To ascertain the progress of Medicare Prescription Drug Plan (Part D)

– Consult your Explanation of Benefits (EOB). Your Medicare prescription plan will send you an EOB each month you obtain a prescription. This document provides a recap of the prescriptions you’ve claimed and the associated expenditures. Explore further details about the EOB.
– Apply Medicare’s Blue Button by accessing your secure Medicare account to download and preserve data relating to your Part D prescription claims.
