## Before you fax

- Aetna's Medicare appeal page asks you to choose your state, county and plan to get your form and, for expedited appeals, your own phone and fax number. If that page shows a different number for your plan, use the one on the page.
- The 859-425-3379 number is printed on Aetna's Member Complaint and Appeal Form (medical or dental). Aetna's page for non-Medicare complaints does not print a fax number itself; it says to mail or fax the form.
- Aetna also takes non-Medicare complaints online and by phone at the number on your member ID card. Medicare appeals can be filed online, by phone or by mail.
- Mail for non-Medicare complaints goes to Aetna, PO Box 14463, Lexington, KY 40512. Medicare appeal and grievance mailing addresses differ by type; they are on Aetna's Medicare appeal and grievance pages.
- If someone else files for the member, Aetna's form asks for a completed Authorized Representative Form when the person is a spouse, a child 18 or older, or another relative.
- Aetna says expedited Medicare appeals are decided within 72 hours, other authorization appeals within 30 calendar days, claim denials within 60 days and drug redeterminations within 7 days. Expedited decisions are not available for claim denials. Check your denial letter for your own filing deadline.
- If your hospital, home health, skilled nursing or rehabilitation care is ending, a fast-track appeal goes to the Quality Improvement Organization named on your Notice of Medicare Non-Coverage, not to Aetna.
