What if I paid less than the amount listed on the Medicare Summary?

By Sharon O'Brien, About.com

Question: What if I paid less than the amount listed on the Medicare Summary?
Answer: If you paid less than the amount listed under the deductible or coinsurance section on the Medicare Summary Notice, the hospital or community mental health center may bill you for the difference. If you have other insurance or coverage, it may pay some of these costs.

Check with your insurance company or benefits administrator to see how your insurance or coverage works with the Original Medicare Plan.
