Professional Administration
Rising’s management of MSA settlement funds fully adheres to the numerous standards established by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS).
We fulfill your administration needs by:
• Setting-up an MSA custodial bank account
• Determining injury-related charges
• Repricing Medicare-allowable billings per state and CMS guidelines
• Utilizing provider negotiations when necessary
• Extending pharmacy discounts and home delivery options
• Disbursing appropriate provider payments
• Submitting required reports on account activity to CMS
• Ensuring post-settlement compliance and risk mitigation for settlement parties
• Handling medical settlement funds that fall outside CMS requirements
Self-Administration Support

• Furnishing the injured party with necessary resources, forms and guidance to manage their MSA funds pursuant to CMS requirements
• Providing online tools, through our Patient Web Portal, that make managing MSA funds easier than paper-based administration
• Enlisting automated bill review services to reduce medical charges
• Extending pharmacy discounts and home delivery options
• Offering telephone support
• Helping safeguard payers, attorneys, structured settlement brokers and injured parties from potential negative actions by CMS
