  2. Porzecanski v. Burwell

    Cross MOTION for Summary Judgment and Opposition to Plaintiff's Motion for Summary Judgment

    Filed June 27, 2017

    Medicare Part A generally covers inpatient hospital services and other institutional care (e.g., skilled nursing facility services), while Part B, implicated here, covers other medical items and services, including physicians’ services, hospital outpatient services, and diagnostic testing performed by clinical laboratories. See 42 U.S.C. § 1395c; 42 U.S.C. § 1395j; 42 U.S.C. § 1395k(a)(1). “Notwithstanding any other provision of [the Medicare statute], no payment may be made under part A or part B . . . for any expenses incurred or items or services, which . . . are not reasonable and necessary for the diagnosis or treatment of illness or injury or to improve the functioning of a malformed body member.”

  4. Mccambridge v. Burwell

    MOTION for Summary Judgment

    Filed July 8, 2016

    Only Part B, which was established in Section 1831 of the Medicare statute, is relevant here. See 42 U.S.C. § 1395j. The Medicare statute and regulations create a program of “defined and limited benefits” that are tethered to “specific practitioner qualification requirements that aim to ensure that program beneficiaries receive high quality health care.”

  6. Lassiter et al v. Pacificare Life and Health Insurance Company et al

    BRIEF/MEMORANDUM in Support of Motion to Remand

    Filed July 17, 2007

    Before the recent extension of Medicare to cover a portion of prescription drug costs, Medicare covered only inpatient care through Part A and outpatient care through Part B. Parts A and B are fee-for-service insurance programs operated by the federal government. 42 U.S.C. § 1395c et seq. (Part A); 42 U.S.C. § 1395j et seq. (Part B). In 1997 Congress enacted Medicare Part C to allow Medicare beneficiaries to opt out of traditional fee-for-service coverage under Parts A and B. 42 U.S.C. § 1395w-21 et seq. (Part C).
