Guest guest Posted January 11, 2011 Report Share Posted January 11, 2011 I have a 35 year old patient that started dialysis 2/28/2010 and was transplanted on 4/15/10. She applied for Medicare when transplanted but it shows her part A eff 8/1/09 and her part B eff 5/1/10? Why do you think A was eff 8/1/09 and B eff 5/1/10 instead of 4/1/10? I'm confused... Thanks!

Guest guest Posted January 11, 2011 Report Share Posted January 11, 2011 hi Missy, hard to know why the Part A went back to 8/1/09 - Disability Medicare? previous dialysis history? Part B might have been started month of Renal application filing, rather than month of transplant. That should be correctible if need be. on Transplant Financial Coordinator Legacy Good Samaritan Hospital Legacy Transplant Services 1040 NW 22nd Ave Ste 480 Portland OR 97210 direct main office toll-free fax lmorriso@... -----Original Message-----From: TxFinancialCoordinators [mailto:TxFinancialCoordinators ]On Behalf Of babydolgSent: Tuesday, January 11, 2011 8:49 AMTo: TxFinancialCoordinators Subject: MEDICARE COB I have a 35 year old patient that started dialysis 2/28/2010 and was transplanted on 4/15/10.
