His left knee has a varus alignment with pseudovalgus laxity. He is tender
along his medial joint line.
DIAGNOSTIC TESTS: I reviewed the outside x-rays of his knees, that you kindly
obtained and sent along, and those show some thinning of the medial joint
space of his left knee and some osteophyte formation there.
DIAGNOSIS: 1.
2.
Impingement syndrome right shoulder, improving
Left knee DJD
PLAN: I explained to Mr. Probst that I am pleased that he responded well to
the injection of his shoulder and as his knee is only minimally symptomatic
at this point, we are going to continue to treat this expectantly. I told
him that if his symptoms change or worsen, we could consider other invention.
I told him that reconstructive surgery for this knee may be an option down
the line but as he states that he has problems with his heart and he is
possibly a transplant candidate, I do not think surgery would be our first
option. If he has any other problems, he is to bring it to my attention.
As always, it is a pleasure sharing in the care of this very nice gentleman.

distress. He is tender over his anterior acromion and he has a positive
impingement sign at 90 degrees forward elevation worse with internal
rotation. He has good active function in his shoulder. He is
neurovascularly intact in his right upper extremity. He is bright, alert,

CHIEF COMPLAINT: Ralph Probst returned and had some concern about his left
leg,
HISTORY OF COMPLAINT: He did rupture his quadriceps last year and now he has
a mass in the left leg, He does not have pain with it, but he states there
is a lump present,
REVIEW OF SYSTEMS: The patient's review of systems, past medical history,
family history and social history have been re-evaluated and reviewed,
PHYSICAL EXAM: Ralph is a well-developed, well-nourished male in no acute
distress, He is alert and oriented x 3.
Examination of the hip reveals no swelling, ecchymosis or visible masses.
There is no abnormal tenderness about the anterior capsule or over the
greater trochanter and no palpable masses. Muscle tone is normal with no
. increased pain with compression of the iliac crest. Range of motion reveals
normal flexion, extension as well as internal and external rotation.
Abduction and adduction are normal and there is no hip flexion contracture in
extension and 90 degree flexion, There is excellent strength of the hip
flexors, extensors, abductors and adductors. Sensory examination reveals
normal sensation over the anterior and lateral thigh, Femoral pulses are
normal. Provocative tests show a normal gait with no evidence of a limp,
equal leg lengths, and a negative Trendeleriburg test,
There is no swelling, effusion, ecchymosis, deformity, or tenderness about
the knee, There is no increased temperature about the knee, There is full
range of motion and painfree motion without crepitation. Patellar grind test
and patellar apprehension are negative. The patient has a negative Lachman
maneuver, a negative Losee maneuver, and a negative pivot shift test. There
is also a negative reverse Lachman maneuver. There is no evidence of medial
or lateral instability or anterior/posterior instability. There is a
negative McMurray Sign, Deep tendon reflexes, motor strength, and sensation
are all within normal limits, The patient has good peripheral pulses,
Examination of the hip and ankle are also grossly within normal limits.
He has a mass over the anterior aspect of the leg, especially when he
contracts his muscle, and I think this does represent ruptured quadriceps,
which has retracted proximally. He has no pain and there does not appear to
be any fluid present,
DIAGNOSIS: Mass, which is contracted muscle of the left quadriceps.
PLAN: He is going to continue to use the leg as tolerated. I do not think
there is any treatment necessary for this. He will return to see me only as
needed,

DEAR JOSEPH DICKSON:
RE: Beneficiary Name: RALPH E PROBST
HICH: 195163609A
Date of Illness or Injury: 11/21/2002
CD
'"

Medicare has been advised that you have been retained to represent the above beneficiary
for matters which occurred as a result of the above referenced illness/injury date.
Medicare acknowledges that you may file a claim and/or a civil action against a third
party on your client's behalf, seeking damages for injuries he/she received and medical
expenses he/she incurred as a result of the above illness/injury.
IS>
Ol
The purpose of this letter is to advise you of the applicability of the Medicare Secondary
Payer Laws. Per 42 D.S.C. 1395y (b) (2) and 1862 (b)(2)(A)(ii) of the Act, Medicare is
precluded from paying for a beneficiary's medical expenses when payment "has been
made or can reasonably be expected to be made. . . under a Workers' Compensation
plan, an automobile or liability insurance policy or plan (including a self-insured plan) or
under no-fault insurance." However, Medicare may pay fi)f a beneficiary's covered
medical expen:ses conditioned on relrribuiserncat tc ~<w{~dic,lr~ from prcceed& received
pursuant to a third party liability settlement, award, judgment or recovery.
OJ
.
In these instances, Medicare's reimbursement is reduced by a pro rata share of
procurement costs. It is in your and your client's best inter,est to keep Medicare's payment
and the obligation to satisfy Medicare's claim in mind when negotiating and accepting a
final dollar amount in settlement of1he claim with the third party. Medicare's claim must
be paid up front out of settlement proceeds before any distribution occurs. Moreover,
Medicare must be paid within 60 days of receipt of proceeds from the third party.
Interest may be assessed, if Medicare is not repaid in a timely manner. Repayment of
Medicare's condi1ional payments must be made to 1he local Medicare contractor or the
lead contractor handling this case.

RE:Ra1phProbst
Date of Accident: November 21, 2002
Claim No.: 1554506S303K~
Dear Mr. Moody:
On December 11, 2002, Mr. Ralph Probst, a 75-year-old Caucasian male, presented to our office for
injuries sustained in an automobile accident on November 21, 2002. Enclosed is a final report Q!lsed on
examination findings of July 11, 2003.
Chief Complaints
The patient's chief complaint were that of lower back pain, mid back and neck regions, left knee, right
ann and sboulder, and right band pain.
The patient graded.liis painusing a Visual Analog pain grade scale ('1 AS). The patient had a substantial
reduction in pain grade. Upon date of the his final treaunent andeX8Juination on July 11, 2003, his VAS
pain grade was 1.0: luitially, the patient presented with a VAS pain grade of 10.0 out 10.0.
Although the patient's pain grade of his symptoms IS down to 1.0 at present, the patient does continue to
have periodic exacerbations of his symptoms and may have days where his VAS pain grade can be much
higher than 1.0.
These symptoms are a direct result following the patient's automobi\(: accident on November 21, 2002. He
stated he has made substantial improvement with treatment. The pati,ent does not have the constant severe
pain.
"
Examination Findings
The following findings are based on an examination, which was performed on July II, 2003. Patient's
~eight 6'1 Yo"; weight 190 100; blood pressure was 120/90; and pulse was 72.
Cervical range of motion with pain or stiffness left rotation 60 degrees.stiffness; right rotation 60 degrees
stiffness; left lateral flexion 30 degrees stitfuess; and right lateral flexion 30 degrees pain. Lumbar range
of motion with pain and or stiffness, flexion 50 degrees with pain; ex1lension 30 degrees pain; and left
lateral flexion 20 degrees with pain. Positive cervical orthopedic tests, apley scratch test was positive
bilaterally,lumbar orthopedic test, nuero10gic stress test was positive 011 the right side, Palpation revealed
right cervical myospasm on the right side, suboccipital cervical regions, cervical fixation CI C4 C5C7
noted on the right. Right =vical myospasm noted, left lumbar myospasm noted L3 through LS region
;:::
with lumbar spinal joint fixations L3 U L5 and left SI region along \'lith trigger points to the right
trapezius region.
Diagnostic Impression
1. 724.8, Acute Traumatic Lumbar Facet Syndrome, residual
2. 847.0, Cervical Acceleration I Deceleration Disorder, slight residual
3.739.2, Traumatic Thoracic Spinal Joint Dysfunction, resolved
4. 739.3, Traumatic Lumbar Spinal Joint Dysfunction, residual
5.739.1, Traumatic Cervical Spinal Joint Dysfunction, residual
6. 739.6, Trauniatic Left Knee Fixation, residual
7. Suspected Traumatic. Activation of an Arthritic Symptom Complex to the Lumbar Region, residual
. .
Prognosis and Treatment Plan
10 my professional opinion, based on this patient's history, examination findings, x-ray findings, and
symptoms, his injuries are a direct resn1t of the automobile accident on November 21, 2002.
This patienr has made substantial improvement from his original presentation to our office on December
6, 2002:Hease note that this patient's last date oftreatmenr for the il1juries sustained in the automobile
accidenr ofNovemher 21,2003, was July 11, 2003.
It is my professional opinion that this patient has sustained a permanmt soft tissue injury to the capsular
joints of the lumbar cervical spine along with a permanent activation of an arthritic symptom complex,
which was aggravated by the trauma of the automobile accident The :patient also has sustained a
permanent soft tissue injury to the right sJloulder.
This patient filled out a revised oswestry low back pain disability n"1d<:x questionnaire. The patient's score
was 28/60~47 percent disability. The patient also filled out a neck pain disability index questionnaire; his
score was 23/60=38 percent disability. Copies of the questionnaires are enclosed for your review. Initially,
the patient's examination score was 39 positive findings out of a possible 100 points. The patient had
made a 17 percent improvement with residual of 32 positive findings.
These questionnaires along with residual cervical lumbar spinal joint dysfunction and pain on range of
motion, my.ospasm, and trigger points are indicative of a permanent soft tissue injury. It is my professional
opinion that this patient will continue to suffer from a permanent exacerbations of his symptoms.
Although, on date of reeva1uation, his symptoms were substantially reduced, it is most likely he will suffer
from continned periodic exacerbations of pain to the cervical and lumbar regions along with right
shoulder pain. This opinion is evidenced by the patient's permanent pain on range of motion, permanent
cervical and lU1llb:,u' spinal joint fixations along with the trauma to an arthritic region in his lumbar spine.
It is my professional opinion that the automobile accident will advance the arthritic changes in his lumbar
spine, which will result in permanent symptoms to the lumbar spine.
lfyou have any questions pertaining to this case, please contact this office at (717) 545-{i063.
Sincerely,
~tr1LlC,

Re: RALPH E. PROBST
HIe No.: 195-16-3609A
Date of Accident: 11/21/02
Dear MR. DICKSON:
Enclosed is a copy of the Claim Reimbursement Summary which includes the total amounts paid
by Medicare for each intermediary and carrier. These amounts are subject to change as more
claims may process.
When imal settlement has been reached, please provide written documentation on vour
letterhead that includes the date of settlement, the total amount of settlement, the attorney
fees (exact dollar amount) and percentage, and an itemization of other costs directly related
to securing the settlement or judgment. Once we receive th,~ statement, we will contact the
other Medicare contractors involved for a final amount and then we will calculate the total
Medicare payment to be repaid.
If a liability insurer sends you a check intended to repay Medicare benefits and it is made payable
to you, Medicare and other parties, Medicare cannot endorse th,~ check and send it back to you.
Federal regulations require that all other parties involved endorse the check first. Medicare will
then deposit the check to satisfy the conditional payment and the remainder ofthe proceeds will
be returned to you.
Medicare will not provide updated amounts until we have received settlement information.
However, Medicare beneficiaries do receive Medicare Summary Notices which may help you
determine which claims have been paid by Medicare. Please ke:ep in mind providers have up to
two years from the date of service to submit claims to Medicare for processing.

RE: PROBST, RALPH E.
195 16 3609
Dear Dr. Frederick:
I had the pleasure of seeing our mutual patient Ralph Probst in the Powers
Avenue Office on January 31, 2003 in follow-up.
CHIEF COMPLAINT: He has been having difficulty with his right shoulder since
his motor vehicle accident.
HISTORY OF COMPLAINT: He has also had pain in the medial aspect of his left
knee and this is worse with activity. It was SE~Vere in nature a few weeks
ago but is now improved and he only has minor discomfort in the knee.
His right shoulder responded beautifully to his subacromial injection.
REVIEW OF SYSTEMS: The patient's review of systems, past'.medical history,.
family history, and social history have been re--evaluated and reviewed.
PHYSICAL EXAM: Range of motion of his shoulder is full. His impingement sign
is now negative. He has good active abduction in his shoulder. He is
neurovascularly intact in his right upper extremity.
His left knee has a varus alignment with pseudovalgus laxity. He is tender
along his medial joint line.
DIAGNOSTIC TESTS: I re....ric..ved th2: outBidex~:::,.:.ys of 1:i8 knees! tha,t you 1{i~dly
obtained and sent along, and those show some thinning of the medial joint
space of his left knee and some osteophyte formstion there.
DIAGNOSIS: 1.
2.
Impingement syndrome right shoulder, improving
Left knee DJD
PLAN: I explained to Mr. Probst that I am pleased that he responded well to
the injection of his shoulder and as his knee is only minimally symptomatic
at this point, weare going to continue to treat this . ",xpectantly. I. told
him that if his symptoms change or worsen, we, could consider ot~er invention.
I told him that reconstructive surgery for this knee may be an option down

option.
but as he states that he has problems with his heart and he is
a transplant candidate, I do not think surgery would be our first
If he has any other problems, he is to bring it to my attention.
As always, it is a pleasure sharing in the care of this very nice gentleman.

OFFICE VISIT
I had the pleasure of seeing our mutual patient Ralph Probst in the Powers
Avenue Office on December 19, 2002, in follow-up.
CHIEF COMPLAINT: Right shoulder.
HISTORY OF COMPLAINT: As you know he is a very nice 75 ,rear old gentleman who
was involved in a motor vehicle accident on 11/21/02. )<pparently he was hit
on the driver's side. He was unrestrained and injured his right shoulder.
Since that time he has had pain in the shoulder in the anterior aspect with
radiation down the lateral aspect of the arm. It is worse with any t'YPe of
activity. He has l.-.eceived excellent conservative care BO far but
unfortunately his pain continues.
REVIEW OF SYSTEMS: The patient's review of systems, past: medical history,
family history, and social history have been re-evaluatEed and rEeviewed.
PHYSICAL EXAM: On exam today hEe is a healthy-appearing gentleman in no acutEe
distress. He is tender over his anterior acromion and he has a positive
impingement sign at 90 degrees forward elevation worse vlith internal
rotation. He has good active function in his shoulder. He is
neurovascularly intact in his right upper extremity. He is bright, alert,
cooperative and appears otherwise healthy.
DIAGNOSTIC TESTS, AP and lateral xray of his right arm t:hat I obtained today
shows normal bony architecture in his humerus and well-maintained subacromial
space.
DIAGNOSIS: It appears to me Mr. Probst has posttraumatic subacromial
impingement syndrome in his right shoulder.
PLAN: We discussed treatment options for this. I inject.ed his right shoulder
with Triam diacEetate under stEerilEe conditions and told him to give this
several '.'leeks to impro....re. ! will see him egajn in p.T.n. for clinical
recheck.
Thanks again for allowing me to participate in the care of this very nice
gentleman.

RE: Ralph Probst
Date of Accident: November 21, 2002
Claim No.: 15545068303K4
Provider: Randy Frederick, D.C.
Provider No.: 478570
Dear Mr. Moody:
On December 11, 2002, Mr. Ralph Probst, a 75-year-old Caucasian male, presented to our office
for uyuries sustained in an automohile accident on November 21,2002.
Chief Complaints
Patient presented with chief complaints of lower back pain along with neck, mid back, left knee,
right arm, shoulder, and right hand pain. The patient stated that the onset of these symptoms were
shortly after an automobile accident on November 21, 2002. The patient was hoping that the
symptoms would reside; however, the symptoms have persisted and over the period of time have
gotten worse. Therefore, the patient presented to our office on December II, 2002 for treatment of
these injuries sustained in the automobile accident of November 21, 2002. The patient used a
Visual Analog (VAS) pain grade scale to grade his pain. Upon presentation, his VAS pain grade
was 8.0.
History of Complaint
Patient stated on NOVember 21,2002, approximately 12:20 p.m he was driving his truck. He was
making a left tui:n.,ff of-the Carlisle Pike in Camp Hill on to another road. He stated that another
vehicle drove out of a shopping center and drove through two lanes of traffic and hit his car on the
drivers' side. At the time of the impact, the patient was not wearing his seatbe1t. He stated that
some damage done to his vehicle, a 1991 S-IO Chevrolet Truck and the other vehicle also had some
damage.
The patient stated he was taken by ambulance to the Harrisburg Hospital's emergency room. Once
at the emergency room, x-rays were taken of his head due to the fact that his blood pressure shot
up very high.
Patient stated that he had pain in the neck, mid back, lower back, left hand, right band, right ann,
and pain in his right shoulder. Since the automobile accident of November 21, 2002, the patient
stated he is having difficulties sleeping at night due to the pain. Since the automobile accident, he
has not been able to pursue his hobby of bowling due to the pain.
The patient stated his pain is daily in the regions mentioned above. He stated that the symptoms are
worse when he is sleeping, sitting or standing in a prolonged position, and especially in the morning
when he bends and lifts. He stated that he cannot find any particular position that alleviate his
symptoms.
He describes the pain in his neck as aclly, the pain in the lower back can be sharp and achy, and
the pain in the mid back pain is achy. The pain into the right arm, hand, and shoulder are achy and
sharp. Left knee pain is achy and sometimes sharp. He also has some weakness in the left arm. He
stated that the pain in his neck is primarily on the left side, but can also be on the right side; lower
back pain is more on the right side; and the mid back pain is bilaterally. He describes the pain as
day and night. He also stated that since the accident he hears cracking-type noises in his neck.
Past Medical History
The patient recalls that as a child he had his appendicitis removed. Approximately 15 years ago he
had surgery for a detached retina. About ten years ago, he had right knee arthritscopic surgery. The
patient did recall being in an automobile accident about one year ago, but he had no injuries Or
complaints following that automobile accident. Currently, the patient is taking multiple
medications.
The patient is taking 25 milgrams of coreg, lorazepan, trazodone, diovane, nexium, and lipitor.
Most of this medication is for cholesterol, blood pressure and heart. He is also taking Centrum
multivitamins. . . .
The patient did initially present to our clinic for treatment of right shoulder and a neck problem.
The patient continued with treatment at our clinic for that problem for a few days following the
automobile accident. The patient stated he thought the symptoms from the automobile accident
would subside, but the symptoms have persisted and have gotten worse. On December 12, 2002,
the patient presented to our clinic for evaluation of those symptoms.
In my professional opinion, the patient's prior symptoms were of a non-traumatic origin and not
related to his current injuries and symptoms. Although the patient did have right shoulder pain
prior to the automobile accident, he stated the pain in the right shoulder has gotten worse.

Physical Findings
The following findings are based on an examination of December 12, 2002. Height: 6' 1"; weight:
210 lbs; blood pressure was 124/82; and pulse was 78. Cervical range of motion with pain, left
lateral flexion 20 degrees, stiffuess noted on extension 20 degrees, left rotation 40 degrees stiffuess,
right lateral flexion 20 degrees stiffuess. Lumbar range of motion with pain, flexion 40 degrees,
extension 20 degrees, left lateral flexion 10 degrees. Positive cervical thoracic orthopedic test,
apley's scratch test positive bilaterally, positive lumbar orthopedic test; sitting kemps bilaterally,
leg drop bilaterally, milgrums bilaterally, and yoeman's test on the right side positive. nuerologic
stress test on the left side and gillets test positive bilaterally. Palpation revealed bilateral cervical
thoracic and lumbar myospasm. Trigger points were noted in the cervical thoracic lumbar trapezius
and suboccipital regions bilaterally. Cervical spinal joint fixations were noted CIC4 C5C7
bilaterally, thoracic region T5T8, and lumbar region Ll through L5, along with bilateral sacroiliac
joint fixations. Percussion with a reflex hammer revealed tellderness to the lumbar region on the
right side. Deep pressure palpation revealed tenderness to the L4 L5 right SI joint region and
palpation to the left knee tenderness. Upon examination, the patient had difficulty going from
supine to prone and prone to sitting. Postural analysis revealed right low hand indicative of lumbar
para spinal weakneSs.

X-Ray Findings
The following fmdings are based on x-rays taken on December 12, 2002. A cervical ap and lateral
views, thoracic ap and lateral views and a lumbar series were taken.
Cervical ap view: C5C6 spinous process deviation to right side.
Cervical lateral view: cervical lordosis C2C7 26 degrees below normal range of 30 to 43 degrees.
Thoracic ap view: T2T3 mild right lateral list noted.
Thoracic lateral view: moderate decrease in disc space anterior margin suggestive of degenerative
joint disease.
Lumbar left lateral bending view: Ll through L5 lack of spinous process deviation to side of
concavity suggestive of lack of normal lumbar c~upling motion.
Lumbar right lateral bending view: L5 lack of vertebral body deviation to side of concavity
suggestive of lack of normal lumbar coupling motion.
Lumbar lateral view: L4L5 facet imbrication, L5 moderate decrease in disc space suggestive of
degc:.nerative joint disease.
L5S1 spot view: moderate degenerative joint disease decrease disc space with osteophytic spurring
suggestive of traumatic insult which may have created an arthritic symptom complex.

7. Suspected Traumatic Activation of an Arthritic Symptom Complex to the Lumbar Region
Prognosis and Treatment Plan
In my professional opirtion, based on this patient's history, examination, and x-ray findings, his
injuries are a direct result of the automobile accident on November 21, 2002.
Please note that the patient was treated at our clinic prior to the automobile accident and that
treatment was for a non related, non traumatic origin injury. This treatment was specifically to the
right shoulder and slight stiffhess to the neck region. The patient's current presentation is that of
injuries sustained in an automobile accident and of a traumatic origin along with a difference in
pain prior type-sharp and constant versus some stiffhess and slight achiness.
Please note that although the patient was treated for his right shoulder prior to the automobile
accident, following the automobile accident he has noticed an increase in severity and duration of
pain to the right shoulder and the trauma of the automobile accident has greatly aggrivated his right
shoulder symptoms.
.;:~
The patient is seeing an orthopedic surgeon Dr. Lippe for the evaluation of the injuries to the right
shoulder region.
The patient's current treatment plan will be that of three times a week for four weeks at which time
the patient wiIl be reevaluated. Patient's treatment will consist of interferential stimulation, hot
packs, continuos ultra sound, intersegmental traction to thoracic lumbar region, and spinal
manipulation.
Short- and Long-Term Goals
Patient's short-term goals will be to reduce pain, decrease inflammation, and reduction of cervical
thoracic lumbar spinal joint fixations and myospasm to those regions. Also, reduction and
restoration of norrnalleft knee function due to fixation in that region and pain.
Long-term goals for this patient will be restoration of normal lumbar spinal bio mechanics along
with restoration of normal lumbar para spinal ml!sculature function. Also improvement in the
patient's ability to perform activities of daily living.
Following the irtitial period of care, the patient will be moved to a more active phase of care
depending upon his response.
The patient f1lled out a General Pain Disability Index and scored 24/60=40 percent. Also, the
patient filled out a Revised Oswestry Low Back Pain Disability Index Questionnaire and scored
36/60=60 percent.
Also, the patient's findings are graded on a point-by-point system with a possible 100 points
maximum. The patient's positive points on his examination findings were 95 out of 100 possible
points.

MEDICARE AND CHAMPUS PAYMENTS: A patient's signature requests that payment be made and authorizes release at any IniormatlOn necessary to process
the claim and certifies that the information provided in Blocks 1 through 12 is true, accurate and complete. In the case of a Medicare claim, the patient's signature

CFR 411.24(a). If item 9 is completed, the patient's signature authorizes release of the information to the health plan or agency shown. In Medicare assigned or
CHAMPUS parti~ipation ca~es, the physician agrees. to acce:pt the charge determination of th~ Medicare carrier or CHAMPUS fiscal Intermediary as the full charge,
and the patient JS responSible only for the deductible, cOInsurance and noncovered services. Comsurance and the deductible are based upon the charge
determination of the Medicare carrier or CHAMPUS fiscal intermediary if this is less than the charge submittea, CHAMPUS is not a health insurance program but
makes payment for health benefits provided through certain affiliations with the Uniformed Services, Information on the patient's sponsor should be provided in those
items captioned in "Insured"; i.e., items 1a, 4, 6, 7, 9, and 11.

I certify that the services shown on this form were medically indicated and necessaryforthe health of the patient and were personaffyfurnished by me orwere furnished
incident to my professional service by my employee under my immediate personal supervision, except as otherwise expressly permitted by Medicare or CHAMPUS
regulations.

by hislher employee, 2) they must be an integral, although incidental part ota covered physician's service, 3) they must be of kinds commonly furnished in physician's
offices, and 4) the services of non physicians must be included on the physician's bills.
For CHAMPUS claims, I further certify that I (or any employee) who rendered services am not an active duty member of the Uniformed Services or acivilian employee
of the United States Government or a contract employee of the United States Government, either civiliall or military (refer to 5 USC 5536). For BlaCk-Lung claims,
I further certify that the services performed were for a Black Lung-related disorder.
No Part B Medicare benefits may be paid unless this form is received as required by existing law and reguiations (42 CFR 424.32)
NOTICE: Anyone who misrepresents or falsifies essential information to receive payment from Federal funds requested by this form may upon conviction be subject
to fine and imprisonment under applicable Federal laws
NOTICE TO PATIENT ABOUT THE COLLECTION AND USE OF MEDICARE, CHAMPUS. FECA, AND BLACK LUNG INFORMATION
(PRIVACY ACT STATEMENT)
We are authorized by eMS, CHAMP US and OWCP to ask you for information needed in the administration of the Medicare, CHAMPUS, FECA, and Black Lung
programs. Authority to collect information is in section 205(a), 1862, 1872 and 1874 of the Social Security Act as amended, 42CFR 411.24(a) and 424.5(a) (6), and
44 USC 3101 ;41 CFR 101 et seq and 10 USC 1079 and 1086; 5 USC 8101 et seq; and 30 USC 901 et seq; 38 USC 613; E,Q, 9397
The information we obtain to complete claims under these programs is used to identify you and to determine your eligibility. It is also used to decide jf the services
and supplies you received are covered by these programs and to insure that proper payment is made
The information may also be given to other providers of selvices, carriers, intermediaries, medical review boards, health plans, ana other organizations or Federal
agencies, for the effective administration of Federal provisions that require other third parties payers to pay primary to Federal program, and as otherwise necessary
to administer these programs. For example, it may be necessary to disclose information about the benefits you have used to a hospital or doctor. Additional disclosures
are made through routine uses for information contained in systems of records.
FOR MEDICARE CLAIMS: See the notice modifying system No. 09-70-0501, titled, 'Carrier Medicare Claims Record, published in the federal Register, Vol. 55
No. 177, page 37549, Wed. Sept. 12, 1990, or as updated and republished.
FOR OWCP CLAIMS: Department of Labor, Privacy Act of 1974, "Republication of Notice of Systems of Records," F,j3deral Regist~.I Vol 55 No 40, Wed Feb. 28,
1990. See ESA-S. ESA-6. ESA'12, ESA-13, ESA.30, or as updated and republished,
FOR CHAMPUS CLAIMS: PAINCIPLEfURPQS.B.Sl. To evaluate eligibility for medical care provided by civilian sources and to issue payment upon establishment
of eligibility and determination that the services/supplies received are authorized by law
ROUTINE USEiSt Information from claims and related documents may be given to the Dept. of Veterans Affairs, the Dept. of Health and Human Services and/or
the Dept. of Transportation consistent with their statutory administrative responSibilities under CHAMPUS/CHAMPVA; to the Dept. of Justice for representation of
the Secretary of Defense in civil actions; to the Internal Revenue Service, private collection agencies, and consumer reporting agencies in connection with recoupment
claims; and to Congressional Offices in response to inquiries made at the request of the person to whom a record pertains. Appropriate disclosures may be made
to other federal, state, local, foreign government agencies, private business entities, and individual providers of care, on matters relating to en~itlement, claims
adjudication, fraud, program abuse, utilization review, quality assurance, peer review, program integrity, third-party liability, coordination of benefits, and civil and
criminal litigation related to the operation of CHAMPUS
DISCLOSURES. Voluntary; however, failure to provide information will result in delay in payment or may result in denial of claim. WIth the one exception discussed
below, there are no penalties underttlese programs for refusing to supply information. However, failure to furnish information regarding the medical services rendered
or the amount charged would prevent payment of claims under these programs. Failure to furnish any other information, such as name or claim number, would delay
payment of tile claim. Failure to provide medical information under FECA could be deemed an obstruction.
It is mandatory that you tell us if you know that another party is responsible for paying ~or your treatment Section 11288 of the Social Security Act and 31 USC 3801-
3812 provide penalties fl"'T 'Nithholding thi~ information
