New Medicare Lien "Law"
Posted On: July 1, 2011
On Tuesday, Medicare and Medicaid set forth new and revised conditional payment final demand letters that are reported to comply with Haro v. Sebelius, No. CV 09-134 TUC DCB, 2011 WL 2040219 (D. Ariz., May 9, 2011). The word on the street is that Medicare has six new conditional payment final demand letters with all new lien language in personal injury and workers' comp cases.
Is dealing with Medicare on product liability, malpractice and accident cases about to get a lot easier? I don't know but I'm giddy. I'll let you know when I find out more details.
