New CMS ABN Booklet Available

CMS has revised a booklet that explains the Advance Beneficiary Notice of Noncoverage(ABN) Form.  An ABN is a standardized form that health care providers must give Medicare beneficiary when the provider believes that Medicare may not pay for an item or service.  The ABN is given to the patient prior to providing the service and the provider’s claim must denote that the ABN was given.
