Why is Medicare involved in my settlement?
Medicare’s interests must be protected in all Workers’ Compensation, Liability, and no-fault insurance cases. The law states that Medicare is always a secondary payor to Workers’ Compensation, Liability, and no-fault insurances. This means that Medicare may not pay bills when other insurance should be paying the bills. Since you received settlement dollars from the primary payor (Insurance Company), Medicare requires you to spend that money on your injury-related care before they will pay your medical bills. Protecting Medicare’s interests is a multi-step process. The illustration below shows how Medicare’s interests must be protected at each stage of your case.
