Quote from: scenicdesign71 on Aug 24, 2024, 05:03 PMThe day before, I had received an alarming notice from my insurance company, saying they were rejecting my claim for the hospital stay (!!!), but the doc assured me that this was a typical bureaucratic glitch that would be remedied quickly and easily, at least insofar as those two words have any meaning whatsoever where bureaucracy is involved. I'm choosing to believe him, for now — his advice was simply to ignore it for the time being — but if the claim hasn't been un-rejected by the end of this month (i.e. the end of this coming week), I'll start making some calls.I got one of those lovely letters from the insurance company saying that my hospital stay was "not medically necessary." I called the insurance company the next day and was told they had no record of that claim being rejected and no Explanation of Benefits with that claim number on it either. I was told to wait a couple of weeks, to see if an EOB came through, officially rejecting the claim. If so, I could file an appeal. That was several months ago. I've kept the instructions on how to file an appeal, but I'm assuming it was just some big mess-up.
