fold faq What is an Advance Beneficiary Notice (ABN)?
An ABN is a written notice that you may receive from physicians, providers, or suppliers before providing a service or furnishing an item to you. The ABN notifies you: • That Medicare will probably deny payment for that specific service or item. • The reason the physician, provider, or supplier expects Medicare to deny payment. • That you will be held personally responsible for payment if Medicare denies payment.
