Medicare Endgame – Applying Predictive Settlement Strategies to Mitigate MSP Exposure

Date: December 5, 2019

Time: 12:00PM - 01:30PM

You must be registered to participate!

Of the many solutions that may exist in the Medicare Secondary Payer (MSP) compliance universe, very few offer the certainty and predictability parties crave. Very few allow the insurance carrier/self-insured to calculate its MSP exposure with absolute certainty. Very few allow the Medicare beneficiary to calculate a potential net award with absolute certainty. Very few allow the file of each respective side to stay closed permanently. John V. Cattie, Jr. and Bruce A. Cranner, expert legal scholars, will walk attendees through the process of using an arbitration (as opposed to mediation) to obtain a judicial allocation on the merits which can be used to address MSP reimbursement obligations, as well as how to protect Medicare’s interests when closing the file through adjudication on the merits before the Board/Industrial Commission.

Who Should Attend

• Anyone who has clients with claims involving Medicare beneficiaries
• Risk Managers and other Claims Professionals for Self-Insureds
• Counsel for insurance carriers

What You Will Learn

• Attendees will learn how to use arbitration as a 21st century means of MSP compliance, addressing both Medicare conditional payment obligations and future medical/Medicare Set-Aside obligations, as well as how to protect Medicare’s interests when closing the file through adjudication on the merits before the Board/Industrial Commission.
