What does the Primary Insurance status represent?

Sometimes, you may have other insurance that pays your health care bills first, while Medicare pays second. Medicare is the secondary payer when the following insurance is available: Auto Insurance, Homeowners Insurance, Commercial Insurance Plans, Group Health Plans under certain conditions, Black Lung Benefits and Worker's Compensation. If the Primary Insurance section is not listed on the "My Enrollment" page, Medicare is your primary insurance.
