Insurance denials are terrifying
There is one treatment that can save your life. When you ask for that treatment, your insurer denies it, stating that the treatment is ...
Experimental/investigational Not medically necessary Out-of-network
Are these denials cast in stone? Do you have to die because your insurer doesn't want to pay? Absolutely not.
Denials can be overcome
Treatments are denied with words. And denials are overcome with words. What does "experimental" really mean?
"Experimental" means whatever the insurance company says it means.
Once you understand insurance company words, you will be able to turn those words to your advantage.
Laurie has walked in your shoes
In 2005, Laurie was diagnosed with Stage IV appendix cancer. The oncologist said, "There is no treatment for your disease. And, even if there were, they wouldn't pay for it."
Laurie found the world's expert on appendix cancer. He was out-of-network, she had no out-of-network benefit.
Laurie spent two months inventing the winning appeal. Three days after receiving her 23-page war document, the HMO called: "We decided to pay it all."
They paid every penny of her surgery, chemotherapy, and hospitalization—$345,000.
She went on to write and win forty-seven appeals for other patients. All different insurers, all over the country.
