Guest guest Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 Is her Social Security SSDI or SSI? on Transplant Financial Coordinator Legacy Good Samaritan Hospital Legacy Transplant Services 1040 NW 22nd Ave Ste 480 Portland OR 97210 direct main office toll-free fax lmorriso@... From: TxFinancialCoordinators [mailto:TxFinancialCoordinators ] On Behalf Of pequena1784Sent: Thursday, March 15, 2012 12:41 PMTo: TxFinancialCoordinators Subject: ESRD Medicare We currently have a heart transplant patient that is also ESRD. We attempted to apply for Medicare but were told by Social Security that she is not eligible because she does not have enough credit hours. We were also told her deceased spouse did not have enough hours either. Is this patient really not eligible ever? Or since she is receiving Social Security does she qualify?

Guest guest Posted March 15, 2012 Report Share Posted March 15, 2012 No Medicare ever is a pretty safe bet. If she reaches Age 65, the state might buy A and B for her, in Oregon this is done to shift costs from the Medicaid system. Call me if you’d like to walk through it. on Transplant Financial Coordinator Legacy Good Samaritan Hospital Legacy Transplant Services 1040 NW 22nd Ave Ste 480 Portland OR 97210 direct main office toll-free fax lmorriso@...
