MemorialCare Select Health Plan contracts with Health Plans who contract with CMS as a Medicare Advantage organization. In accordance with CMS regulations, providers who are not contracted with a Medicare Advantage organization may file a standard appeal for a claim that has been denied, in whole or in part, but only if they submit a completed Waiver of Liability Statement (pdf). If you complete a Waiver of Liability Statement, you waive the right to collect payment from the member, with the exception of any applicable cost sharing, regardless of the determination made on the appeal.
The Waiver of Liability Form can be found below. Please include documentation such as a copy of the original claim, remittance notification showing the denial, and any clinical records and other documentation that supports your argument for reimbursement.
If you appeal and the health plan upholds the denial, in whole or in part, you will have additional appeal rights available to you including, but not limited to, reconsideration by a CMS contracted independent review entity.
To appeal, mail your request and completed Waiver of Liability Statement within 60 calendar days after the date of this notice to the corresponding Health Plan:
