To assist you in correctly identifying a claim for dispute, it is recommended that you have your Payment Summary Form in hand. Your Payment Summary Form will have more comprehensive information than what is displayed on this page and will assist you in identifying and matching the claim information that should be included or disputed on the Medicare Secondary Payer Recovery Portal (MSPRP).

The claim information will be listed in the same order as the Payment Summary Form that is mailed with the Conditional Payment letter. You can see an example of the Payment Summary Form and field descriptions by clicking on the MSPRP User Guide under the Reference Materials menu.

The claims displayed on the Claims Listing page may differ from those listed on your Payment Summary Form if there has been any recent case activity between the date of the form and the current date. For example, information may have been removed as a result of a dispute or added as a result of new claims being associated to the case.

Notes:

  • If a claim was disputed and the dispute was approved, the claim will automatically be removed from the Claims Listing page.
  • Review each claim (the dates of service [From and To Dates], the rendering physician [Provider Name] and the diagnosis codes) and determine if it is related to what is being claimed or released with respect to the accident, illness, injury, or other incident.
