In the past, patients with Medicare and Medicare Advantage plans were eligible to enroll in the Good Days program, a national non-profit charitable organization, that assisted with offsetting the cost of the patient responsibility coinsurance for injections based on financial need.
Unfortunately, at this time, Good Days has not received adequate funding in order to continue to provide assistance for all eligible patients.
As a result, unless there is additional funding received, moving forward, patients will be responsible for their coinsurance amount at the time of their visit. As participating providers in the Medicare program, Mid Atlantic Retina is required by federal law to collect unmet deductible, and coinsurance amounts for Medicare and Medicare Advantage plan beneficiaries.
Mid Atlantic Retina recognizes the importance of continued treatment for their patients – if you are unable to afford your coinsurance, please do not skip your scheduled appointment – there may be other treatment options available.
