This video provides guidance on what to do if your health insurance claim is denied:
- Review the denial reasons: Understand why your claim was denied. Sometimes, it may lead you to more cost-effective alternatives.
- Contact your doctor and insurance company: Discuss the denial with your healthcare provider and insurer. It could be due to a coding error or missing information, which can often be resolved quickly.
- File an appeal: If the issue isn’t resolved after contacting your insurer, you have the right to file an appeal. Your insurer should provide you with a written denial letter that includes information on how to appeal.
- Pursue legal help if necessary: As a last resort, you can seek assistance from an insurance bad faith denial attorney if you believe your claim was unfairly denied.
- It’s essential to be proactive and advocate for yourself to ensure you receive the appropriate coverage and care.
