The Process of Investigating
How do I know if something is legitimate? Here are steps we recommend you take to investigate any concerns:
Step 1: Contact that Provider or Supplier
Call your health care provider or supplier first to question the charge.
If the issue is determined to be a mistake, ask them to correct it.
Step 2: Contact The Payer/Insurance
If the provider or supplier can’t answer the question, contact the company that paid the bill. Their contact information can be found on your Medicare Summary Notice (MSN) or Explanation of Benefits (EOB).
Step 3: Contact DE SMP
If the issue still isn’t resolved, Contact Us, DE SMP, and we can assist. If fraud or abuse is suspected, we will guide you in resolving it and we will refer cases to the proper authorities on your behalf.
