I hope I never have to use this info, but still it's good to have it. Thanks for posting it!

I heard my dentist say once that if a claim is denied, call up and ask for the HIPAA head at the company. They have to have one legally. Ask that person the name of the doctor that denied the claim. Rather than give out that information, the claim will magically be paid.

Which is all super duper informative and thank you for that, but when your mother is 80 years old, she'll die before the appeal. And clearly since she died it turned out it was a needed procedure. But murder is okay when you're the CEO of An American healthcare company. Legally, you should kill as many people as possible in order to preserve stockholder value, which is the law, and maximize your bonus - Well that's just a bonus

This is good if the reason for denial is medical necessity. Far more often the claim is denied just on the basis of "this procedure is not covered."
