Denial of Care

Some people have a concern about the denial of care related to Medicare patients.

• Many Medicare “denials” have nothing to do with health care. The managers of Medicare processing want to make certain that claims submitted to Medicare are valid.
• The denial of care is different than denial of a claim, which is a process that helps confirm the accuracy and validity of claims.
• Improved Medicare for All will have much less actual denial of health care because it:
  • provides all medically-necessary care
  • is more efficient.
