Congress has passed legislation sought by the insurance industry and other stakeholders since late 2008 that streamlines enforcement of the Medicare Secondary Payment program.
David Farber, a lawyer for the Medicare Advocacy Recovery Coalition (MARC), and a partner at Patton Boggs, in Washington, D.C., says passage of legislation produces "wins for Medicare beneficiaries, the Medicare Trust Fund and businesses resolving claims."
The coalition "applauds Rep. Tim Murphy, R-Pa., and Ron Kind, D-Wis, and Sens. Ron Wyden, D-Ore, and Rob Portman, R-Ohio, for their bipartisan leadership," he adds.
