What does $0 mean under Non-Covered Charges of my MSN?

September 20, 2009 by admin

The Non-Covered Charges field of the Medicare Summary Notice (MSN) shows the charges for services denied or excluded by the Medicare program for which you may be billed. If a $0.00 appears in this field, it means that there were no services denied or excluded by Medicare for which you may be billed. The total amount the provider is allowed to bill you is detailed in the You May Be Billed column of your MSN. It combines the deductible, the coinsurance and any non-covered charges. If you have supplemental insurance, it may pay all or part of this amount. View an example of the Medicare Summary Notice for more information.
