Notes for Claims Above
A Local Coverage Determinations (LCDs) help Medicare decide what is covered. An LCD was used for your
claim. You can compare your case to the LCD, and send information from your doctor if you think it could
change our decision. Call 1-800-MEDICARE (1-800-633-4227) for a copy of LCD #L28516.
B It appears that you did not know that we would not pay for this service, so you are not liable. Do not pay
your provider for this service. If you have paid your provider for this service, you should submit to this
office three things: 1) a copy of this notice, 2) your provider’s bill, and 3) a receipt or proof that you have
paid the bill. You must file your written request for payment within 6 months of the date of this notice.
Future services of this type provided to you will be your responsibility.
C Your claim was sent to your Medicare Supplement Insurance (Medigap policy), Wellmark BlueCross
BlueShield of N. Carolina. Send any questions regarding your benefits to them.
