There are many reasons your insurance could deny your claim. We have insurance specialists on staff that process denials and sometimes can appeal to obtain payment for. For example, insurance companies may require a copy of your report and we can forward it along to them. However, sometimes insurance companies require a letter of medical necessity from the physician that ordered the exam and sometimes the insurance company may require additional information from you. We do not have access to your complete benefit information. Contacting your insurance company for a full explanation of why your claim was denied may better assist you in understanding their processing of your claim.
In an effort to help patients estimate the portion of their responsibility after their insurance has processed their claim, you may have received an estimated cost of your procedure from the facility prior to your service. We make every attempt to estimate as closely as possible what the after-insurance balance will be, but because all insurances cannot provide exact amounts of what they will process, we cannot provide exact patient responsibility amounts either.
The deductible is the amount of patient responsibility before insurance covers certain procedures. For your deductible information, you will need to contact your insurance carrier. Coinsurance is the percentage you are responsible for after you have met your deductible.
