Medicare Part B Contractors

Carriers
A Carrier is a private insurance company contracted with Medicare to pay physicians for their Part B bills. Most states are assigned to one Carrier. If there is more than one Carrier for a state, physicians may choose from the Carriers available to process and pay their Medicare claims. These Carriers submit adjudicated Medicare claims to the CMS Coordination of Benefits Contractor (COBC) to be included in the crossover process. After validating the claim files for HIPAA compliance, the COBC sends secondary and tertiary claims to us.
