As a person with Medicare, you have important rights. One of them is the right to appeal.
An appeal is the action you can take if you disagree with a coverage or payment decision by Medicare or your Medicare health plan. For example, you can appeal if Medicare or your plan denies:
• A request for a health care service, supply, item or prescription drug that you think you should get.
• A request for payment of a health care service, supply, item or prescription drug you already got.
• A request to reduce the amount you must pay for a health care service, supply, item or prescription drug.
