		<description>There are several states where mandated Medicare providers are not allowed to charge more than what Medicare allows (This is the MOM Law or Medicare Overcharge Measure).  In these states, (Connecticut, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island and Vermont), Part B excess coverage is not necessary. 

In all other states, providers are able to bill UP TO 15% of what Medicare Allows directly to the Medicare Beneficiary.  This is sometimes called &quot;Balance Billing&quot; or Excess Charging.

For Medigap Policy holders with Plan F and G, the Medigap Plan will cover 100% of the excess charges for the Policy Holder.</description>

		<description>Hello:

With regard to Medigap, it is my understanding that some States do not allow physicians to apply a Part B Excess.  Is this correct and if so, is Pennsylvania one of those States?</description>

		<description>You note that in 2010 Plan G only pays 80% of Part B Excess Charges.  Per numerous sites I have checked they note starting 6/1/10 Plan G pays 100%.</description>
