Guest guest Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 Medicare D will pay for Immuno drugs if pt did not have Medicare at time of transplant, However, the Renal transplant is an entitling event and patient should enroll in medicare. Medicare will back date to the first day of the month of transplant.. ESRD medicare will term 36 months after transplant, but part B will pay for the immuno drugs when he turns 65.

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 In addition, the 2728 is required by the SS admin and the ESRD network. It is completed by dialysis social worker if he is on dialysis, AND by transplant after kidney transplant.

Guest guest Posted January 12, 2012 Report Share Posted January 12, 2012 just to let you know. the 2728 is not a medicare applictaion. It simply lets medicare know that the patient is elligible. Pt must still apply for medicare. Amellia Gay and White Temple, TX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
