The parties may agree to a different performance. This is called an accord. When the accord is performed, this is called an accord and satisfaction. The original obligation is discharged. In order for there to be an accord and satisfaction, there must be a bona fide dispute; an agreement to settle the dispute; and the performance of the agreement. An example would be settlement of a lawsuit for breach of contract. The parties might settle for less than the amount called for under the contract.

Initial claims must be received by MassHealth within 90 days of the service date. If you had to bill another insurance carrier before billing MassHealth, you have 90 days from the date of the explanation of benefits (EOB) of the primary insurer to submit your claim.
Insurance companies set their own time limits, so it's best to consult your insurance contract with your provider. In general, medical billing time limits range from 90 days to 180 days.

MassHealth members can have both MassHealth and private health insurance at the same time. If you have both types of insurance, the private health insurance is considered a liable third party or “TPL”.
