Don't Delay, Apply for the MCARE Abatement

No one can completely prepare for what tomorrow may bring. PMSLIC strongly urges our policyholders to apply for the Mcare abatement as soon as possible. In the case of Mcare, the old saying “Don’t put off ‘til tomorrow what you can do today” holds much value.

Consider the following circumstances…

• The phone call from our policyholder’s mother was heartbreaking. Her son, a Pennsylvania physician in his forties, had passed away from cancer months earlier. In settling the doctor’s estate, the mother had stumbled across her son’s Mcare abatement application that had been set aside during the doctor’s illness and never completed.
• Dr. Green just received his bill for his Mcare full Mcare assessment. He doesn’t understand why he’s being billed for Mcare again when he paid another earlier Mcare bill for the abated amount. Through the course of the conversation, the PMSLIC Policyholder Services Representative learns that Dr. Green never applied for the Mcare abatement that he may have been eligible for because he thought his employer had handled it for him.
• Dr. Miller, a PMSLIC policyholder, decided to retire mid-way through the policy year. PMSLIC billed him the annual Mcare assessment at the abated amount in February, and he paid it. Dr. Miller retires in June, PMSLIC returns the Mcare credit due to him, but Dr. Miller does not apply for the Mcare abatement either before or after his retirement is effective. The following spring, Dr. Miller is surprised to receive an Mcare bill for the remainder of the full assessment now due.

Any physician not sure about applying should apply! Eligibility will be determined by Mcare representatives after they receive an application, but Mcare must first have an application to consider. By completing the Mcare abatement application, policyholders can ensure that despite changing circumstances, they have submitted the necessary paperwork to be considered for abatement eligibility. If eligible, Mcare will e-mail an eligibility status letter—as well as mail a hardcopy—to the policyholder, who, in turn, is responsible for sending a copy to PMSLIC to complete the process.
