ESRD Coordination of benefits

[Guest guest]

Good Morning,

Can someone tell me if I have a patient that has a group health insurance that is primary due to ESRD and the 30 month coordination ends 5/1/2014, but the patient will turn 65 in Jan of 2013, (before the 30 month coordination ends). Will Medicare then become primary due to her age?

Thank you,

not if the insured person is still working.

Does the patient have Medicare B also? If

not, she should take that then she turns 65 – otherwise she will have the

10% per year increased Medicare B premium for life. But she should also check

with Social Security to see if she will have the B premium penalty if she waits

until 65.
