Representation documentation for appeal requests made by someone other than enrollee or the enrollee's doctor: Your doctor may ask us for an appeal on your behalf. If you want another individual (such as a family member or friend) to request an appeal for you, that individual must be your representative. That person may already be your representative if you've filed paperwork with your state, such as Power of Attorney papers. For more information on appointing a representative, contact your plan or 1-800-Medicare 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. TTY users should call 1-877-486-2048.
