What is the difference between Medicare Part A and Part B claims?

Medicare Part A and Part B claims differ in the types of services they cover. Medicare Part A is hospital insurance that helps cover inpatient care in hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, and hospice, as well as some home health care. When filing a Medicare Part A claim, it usually involves stays in hospitals or skilled nursing facilities. On the other hand, Medicare Part B is medical insurance that covers doctors' services, outpatient care, preventive services, and durable medical equipment. Part B claims deal with services and supplies received outside of a hospital setting. Both Part A and Part B claims can be submitted to Humana for processing, ensuring reimbursement for the covered services. Understanding the distinction between the two types of claims is crucial for correctly submitting and managing Medicare claims.
