Items & Services That Are Not Covered Under the Medicare Program

Written by Reed Tinsley, CPA | December 19, 2011

This publication published by the Medicare Learning Network provides the following information:

• The four categories of items and services that are not covered under the Medicare Program andapplicable exceptions to exclusions;

• The Advance Beneficiary Notice of Noncoverage (ABN); and

• Resources.

This is an excellent learning tool for your billing staff, so I suggest you make a copy for each person.
