Checking the status of a claim

To check the status of Medicare Part A (Hospital Insurance) or Medicare Part B (Medical Insurance) claims:

• Log into (or create) your secure Medicare account. You’ll usually be able to see a claim within 24 hours after Medicare processes it. 
• Check your  Medicare Summary Notice (MSN) or electronic MSN. The MSN is a notice that people with Original Medicare get in the mail. It shows:
  • Part A and Part B-covered services or supplies billed to Medicare 
  • What Medicare paid
  • The maximum amount you may owe the provider
    Learn more about the MSN and view a sample.
• Use our connected apps by logging into your Medicare account to download and save your Part A and Part B claims information. Learn more about our connected apps.

To check the status of Medicare drug plan (Part D) , Medicare Advantage Plan (Part C) or other Medicare health plan claims:

• Check your Explanation of Benefits (EOB). Your plan will mail you an EOB each month you fill a prescription, visit a health care provider, or file a claim. This notice gives you a summary of your claims and costs.
• For more up-to-date claims information, contact your plan.
