When the government pays for medical treatment, they want their money back. This practically focused CLE will educate the plaintiffs' bar about the strength of those recovery rights, against whom they can be enforced, and what best practices can be employed to defeat or reduce their repayment demands. Dave Place will present a 60-minute program providing you with practical file handling guidance on how best to address TRICARE, VA and MEDICARE subrogation/ reimbursement claims. The nature of the cause of action and the statute of limitations will be discussed as well as the required forms and complex process. 

This CLE is designed to answer the day-to-day questions and issues that arise in attempting to address repayment demand being asserted by the government. Join this CLE with your questions ready!
