   Excess charges occur when you use a provider that does not accept assignment of benefits. In those situations your provider is required to file your claim with Medicare.
   
   The provider is allowed to collect amounts in excess of the allowable charge by Medicare. Only 2 Medigap plans will cover excess charges.
