Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What should I do if I have been denied treatment under my health plan?
A: First and foremost you should read your insurance policy. Your policy may impose deadlines for appealing the denial of benefits. You are strongly encouraged to consult an attorney knowledgeable in managed care liability to review your policy and to advise you on appealing the denial of benefits. If you are not successful on appeal, your attorney can advise you on whether you should file a lawsuit to compel the insurance company to provide benefits under the policy. Under ERISA you may be able to recover your attorney's fees.
