Your Right To Appeal
As a Medicare member, you have the right to appeal healthcare decisions
that you disagree with. Please be sure to share this information
with your family.
There are two types of appeals:
Hospital Discharge Appeals
File a Hospital Discharge Appeal if you believe you are not medically
ready to go home from the hospital, or if you have not received
clear discharge instructions.
Termination of Service Appeals
File a Termination of Service Appeal if you disagree with your
healthcare provider's decision to terminate coverage from a nursing
home, home health agency, hospice, or comprehensive outpatient
rehabilitation facility.
