WHAT IF MY MEDICAL TREATMENT IS DENIED?

Often times, the insurance company will deny treatment recommended by your doctor. Your doctor sends a request for medical treatment (RFA) and the insurance company doctors review those RFA’s and determine to allow or not allow that treatment. That process is called Utilization Review (UR). If the treatment is denied, and your case is accepted, you can take your issue through the Independent Medical Review process (IMR) to overturn the insurance company’s decision.
