Why Was Your Medical Claim Denied?

Why Denied

What happened your Medical Provider billed your insurance company. The insurance company sent you in the mail or e-mail. Your claim has been denied.

Now what?

What happened?

There are several questions to be asked.

Was the correct insurance company billed?
Was the correct date of service billed?
Was the CPT code correct?
Was the ICD code correct?
Were the correct charges placed on the correct patient?
Is your Medical Information up-to-date in their computer system?

This is just a slim idea of how your Medical Insurance Company can deny payment on a specific date of service.

My book Fight Your Medical Insurance Nightmares!! Gives more information on this problem plus tons of other information you need to know.

What you need to know.

For instance, do you know what a CPT or ICD code is. If you don’t you need to know.
Do you know the correct Medical Terminology to ask your Medical Provider or Insurance Company?
Do you know what hospital your Medical Insurance is contracted with if you need to go to the Emergency Room or be admitted to a hospital?

These are some of the things you need to know.

Thank you for reading my article.

Fight Your Medical Insurance Nightmares!! Let Me Show You How

This is a book I wrote when I worked in hospital billing. I couldn’t believe how many people did not know how their insurance worked. Do you?

It can be any insurance plan. Do you know how it works? Why you pay for a specific amount for your doctors visit and someone else pays another amount?

Contracts

Is the mystery word which we all need to know and how it works for you.

Your insurance program is contracted with a specific Physician, Hospital, Hospital, Laboratory, X-ray, etc. It depends upon the contracted rate which was established at the time the contract was signed.

Most physicians try to get onto as many medical plans they can. Sometimes the plan is full and the physician can’t get on a certain plan.

In case of an emergency, you could end up in a hospital which is not contracted with the hospital you were taken. Your (EOB) or explanation of Benefits with deny the charge and say, “Your hospital was not contracted with our insurance. Or words to that effect and will not be paid Then the bill needs to be appealed.

Appeal

In my book are sample letters of appeal letters. I have written hundreds of these in my time on the job force. Also, personal stories of nightmares I had trying to get my bill paid.
