How to Submit Bills for Sharing with Medi-Share 65+

Managing health care costs as you age can feel overwhelming. For Medi-Share 65+ members, understanding the bill submission process is key to ensuring medical expenses are shared effectively. This step-by-step guide is designed to help you submit bills and receive sharing through Medi-Share 65+, a trusted health care sharing program.

Understanding Medi-Share 65+ as a Medicare Secondary Payer

Medi-Share 65+ works as a secondary payer to Medicare Parts A and B, stepping in for eligible expenses not fully covered by Medicare. These expenses can include copayments, deductibles, coinsurance, and excess charges. By working together with Medicare, Medi-Share 65+ ensures that your medical needs are managed affordably.

Step-by-Step Guide to Medi-Share 65+ Bill Submission

1. Submit Bills to Medicare First
   When you receive care, present your Medi-Share Member ID card to the provider. They’ll bill Medicare, which must process the claim before Medi-Share can review it. Only treatments approved by Medicare are eligible for sharing.

2. Collect Medicare’s Explanation of Benefits (EOB)
   Once Medicare processes the bill, you’ll receive an Explanation of Benefits (EOB). This document outlines what Medicare paid and any remaining eligible costs.

3. Send Your Bill and EOB to Medi-Share
   Submit your bill and EOB to Medi-Share using one of the following methods:

   • Electronic Submission:
     Use the EDI number listed on your Member ID card for faster processing.
   • Paper Submission:
     Mail a HCFA or UB form, along with your Medical Bill Submission Form, to the address on your ID card. These forms can be downloaded from your Member Center.

4. Confirm Your Annual Household Portion (AHP)
   Your household must meet its Annual Household Portion (AHP) before Medi-Share begins sharing eligible medical bills. Bills Medicare doesn’t cover, like deductibles or excess charges, apply toward your AHP threshold.

5. Monitor Submission Progress
   Check the status of your bill and sharing request through Medi-Share’s provider support line or automated phone system. Staying engaged helps ensure smooth processing..
