Hi! I've searched the term on the Internet and I found "notificación previa al beneficiario", but I don't like it. Any suggestions?
Thanks.

notificación previa al beneficiario
Explanation:
Like it or not, I think that is it. It is a notice that Medicare may not pay for certain items and the Medicare beneficiary agrees to be responsible for the charges if Medicare does not pay, or in the alternative the beneficiary may refuse the procedures.

  -> Perhaps, but I found it specifically in a Medicare context The main thing here is that they will NOT tell you beforehand whether they will pay or not. You have to chance it, and if they don't pay, you pay. I don't know if insurance co's. can do that.
