Medicare
If you are
a having difficulties with an issue dealing with the Centers for
Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS),
Congressman LaTourette and his staff can monitor your claim by
sending an inquiry directly to Medicare. A Consent for Release form
would be needed from the individual, along with any documentation
pertaining to the Medicare issue.
As with all other casework, Congressman LaTourette and his staff
cannot force any agency to expedite your case or to act in your
favor. We also cannot offer legal advice or recommend an attorney.
However we will act as the liaison between Medicare and yourself.
In addition, we will monitor and report back to you with the
progress of your case. Although each case varies depending on the
complexities, we usually have a response back from Medicare within
45-60 days after they receive the case from our office.
