If you’re getting Medicare services from a hospital, skilled nursing facility, home health agency, comprehensive outpatient rehabilitation facility, or hospice, and you think your Medicare‑covered services are ending too soon (or that you’re being discharged too soon), you can ask for a fast appeal. Your provider will give you a notice called a Notice of Medicare Non Coverage before your services end, telling you how to ask for a fast appeal. You should read this notice carefully. If you don’t get this notice, ask your provider for it. With a fast appeal, an independent reviewer will decide if your covered services should continue.
