I just hadanother fun adventure with medicaid and medicare and was wondering if anyone else had. I fabricated a prostheses for a guy on 10 27 04 and after 3 months got paid from SC medicaid. Just last week I recieved a letter from them stateing that this person just recently recieved retroactive medicare and that medicaid will be withholding 12 grand from future claims and that I should bil medicare for the 04 prostheses. What a nightmare, It took forever to get notes for the new socket I did for him last month getting notes from 04 from a doctor who is no longer with the practice is going to be even worse.n Im holding p my medicaid claims till this is resolved. I guess it would be to easy to medicaid to retrieve the money dirctly from medicare. P. Cartaya CPO
