All of the answers were slightly correct. First off, you said you were looking at your supplemental medical insurance statement. You also have to get your Medicare A and your Medicare B coverage statements. Each statement is separate and available on their own processing timeline. If you set-up a Medicare online account you will get an email telling you when your statement is ready for viewing. Your Medicare coverage is responsible for paying first. That means your supplemental insurance only covers what they know Medicare will not consider covering. Medicare statements that are sent to you in the mail are usually delayed for long periods after the billing period. Contact your county seniors organization. They can be trusted to help you set-up online accounts since you will be sharing all of your sensitive personal information with anyone who helps you with Medicare or insurance sites. Due to so much identity fraud do not share your personal information with anyone unless you trust them with your life, money and your future happiness. Be careful and choose financial helpers wisely.
