What are my Medicare appeal rights? You have the right to appeal any decision about your Medicare services.  If your plan refuses payment for an item or service you have been provided, or if you have been denied an item or service you think you need, you may file an appeal.

When you have a grievance or want to file an appeal, it is important to contact HICAP.  We may be able to help you resolve your problem before it needs to be appealed.  HICAP can also help with the appeal process.  Call 1-800-­434-0222 to schedule a confidential, one-on-one appointment.
