Medicare Beneficiary Information

Attention Medicare Beneficiaries

Thank you for choosing to receive your care today at one of Moffitt’s outpatient centers.

We are required by Medicare to inform you that because the care you receive today is being furnished in a hospital department, you will have a coinsurance liability that you would not have if the services were provided in a non-hospital setting.  Moffitt does not currently offer care in a non-hospital setting.

At Moffitt, you will receive services and be billed by the Moffitt Cancer Center (for facility use, diagnostic testing, etc.) and from the Moffitt Medical Group (MMG) or USF Physicians Group (USFPG) for your provider’s care including interpretation of radiology tests and lab work.

Medicare requires that we provide you with an estimate of your coinsurance amounts.  Medicare will determine the actual amount, based on the type and number of services received.

Once Medicare has processed their portion of the charges, the balance will be submitted to a secondary payer.  If there is a balance after the secondary insurance payer.  If there is a balance after the secondary insurance processes the claim or if you do not have secondary insurance, you will receive a bill for the remaining balance.

You may contact a financial counselor at 813-745-8422 with any questions about your bill or financial responsibility.
