Medicare clears up problem with records
I've been receiving a bill from a medical practice since March 2002. I went there Feb. 14 for an evaluation; I had fallen over my sweeper the night before and hurt myself. When the insurance lady submitted my claim to Medicare, she filed it as a car injury. As a result, the claim was denied "because this injury is the liability of the no-fault carrier." I did have an accident in 1992, but this injury has nothing to do with it. I have tried to straighten this out but keep getting the same bill from the medical practice, whose fault this was to begin with. Ellen Fradenburg
