Dear Patient:

Medicare will only pay for services that it determines to be “reasonable and necessary” under section 1862(a) (1) of Medicare law. If Medicare determines that a particular service, although it would otherwise be covered, is not “reasonable and necessary” under Medicare program standards, Medicare will deny payment for that service. I believe that, in your case, Medicare is likely to deny payment for:

CPT Code_________________ Procedure (Specify) _________________________

______________________________________________________________________

for the following reasons: _________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________________

______________________________________________________________________

Beneficiary Agreement:

I have been notified by my physician that he or she believes that, in my case, Medicare is likely to deny payment for the services identified above for the reasons stated. If Medicare denies payment, I agree to be personally and fully responsible for payment.
