Provisional Medicare Set Aside (PMSA)
This abbreviated MSA allocation provides an accurate projection of the future cost of medical care in a workers’ compensation or liability settlement. This product is intended for planning and evaluation purposes in cases where the Social Security Disability status and/or Medicare eligibility status are undetermined. The PMSA will also identify and delineate any and all cost drivers that might be inflating the MSA. This document does not contain a medical chronology and is NOT intended to be submitted to CMS, but can be converted to a traditional MSA.

Structured Settlement
Structured settlements offer many benefits to all parties when it comes to settlement of a workers’ compensation or liability claim file. For carriers and insured’s, a structure can represent significant cost savings versus a lump sum payment. For plaintiffs and their attorneys, a structure represents security and peace of mind.
When a Medicare Set Aside is a component of the settlement, all parties benefit from a structured settlement. Why? A structured settlement adds a layer of protection by minimizing the potential for misappropriation of MSA funds, thereby reducing the threat of Medicare benefits potentially being denied to the plaintiff, and significant potential fines and penalties for the defense.
AXIOM has the experience and expertise to help you through the entire structured settlement process.
