The insurance company wants an exam, but won't pay for it. They want reasons why the patient needs care so I write up a narrative and they deny them anyway.
Talking to the Aetna doctors, they said that they were told to start to deny claims more. They were to say it was not needed.
The insurance companies are taking the premiums and giving it to their CEOs and don't care about the patients.
It's a sad time for health care.

The cost of doing business in this state continues to rise and our reimbursement continues to decline. Insurers are bundling sperately identifiable CPT codes into one fee, and in many instances denying reimbursement for others. I provide high quality services to my patients and it is only fair that I receive a fair and equitable fee. I request DOBI investigate ins reimbursement practice

When we resubmit the claim for corrected

they say you are not licensed to do this procedure. All tactics to not reimburse the
claim, and this creates more paperwork,
time and money that the doctor needs to
spend to get this one claim paid. This is
an unfair practice and the patients suffer,
