When a patient presents a CareGuard card, it signifies their enrollment in Ametros’ professional administration service for managing their Medicare Set-Aside (MSA) account. This is a crucial step in ensuring proper management of settlement funds.
Purpose of the CareGuard Card
Your patient sustained a work-related or liability injury, resulting in a court settlement. They received funds aimed at covering future medical expenses tied to the injury.
CareGuard as the Primary Payer
Following the settlement, CareGuard is responsible for being the primary payer on all claims associated with the injury. It is essential for all medical billing related to the injury to be directed to CareGuard.
For comprehensive information on how CareGuard works within the framework of MSAs and its obligations as the primary payer, please refer to additional resources or reach out to the administering service directly.
