Medicare Benefits
If your problem involves eligibility for Medicare or premium payments, I can contact the Social Security Administration on your behalf.
If your problem involves coverage for specific procedures or non-payment of claims submitted to Medicare, I can send an inquiry to the Part A or Part B carrier on your behalf. In your form of authorization, please include the date(s) of service, the service provider, the amount charged, and your social security number along with a description of the problem.
To request assistance from my office electronically, please use the Online Casework Form, or call my District Office directly at 510-763-0370.
You can initiate an application to recieve Medicare benefits by contacting Medicare online at http://www.medicare.gov or by calling 1-800-633-4227.
In addition, there are several non-profit, volunteer-based programs in the community that provide free assistance to seniors, disabled people, and their families to help understand and navigate the Medicare system.
