All the answers in one place
Which kind of appeal do I pick?
- WISeR resubmission: Original Medicare did not affirm a WISeR request. You send it again with the same tracking number (UTN).
- Texas plan appeal: A Texas fully insured plan said no. This is your first appeal to the plan.
- Specialty review request: A Texas plan said no to your appeal. You ask for a reviewer in the same or a similar specialty.
- Medicare Advantage reconsideration, before care: A Medicare Advantage plan said no before care. Your physician asks the plan to look again.
- Peer-to-peer brief only: The plan offers a call with its reviewer. You get a one-page brief for your physician to use on the call.
- Employer plan appeal (self-funded): A self-funded employer plan said no. The patient names your practice as their representative, then you appeal.
- Medicare claim appeal (redetermination or QIC): Original Medicare denied a claim after care. First you ask for a redetermination; if that fails, the QIC.
- Medicare Advantage claim appeal (out-of-network office): A Medicare Advantage plan denied payment, and your office is not in its network. You sign the plan's waiver form and appeal.
- Outside review (IRO or federal): The plan said no on its last appeal. An independent reviewer looks at the case, by the route the plan's letter names.
How do I know the kind of plan?
- Look at the front of the patient's ID card. TDI or DOI there means a Texas fully insured plan.
- Not sure? Call the number on the back of the card and ask: is this plan fully insured or self-funded?
When is my packet ready?
- As soon as it is built, usually within a minute. Open the case: it says "Ready for you".
- Anything our automatic checks flag is listed on the packet's cover for your physician.
How do I fill in the blanks?
- Open the case and download the draft.
- Fill each [square bracket] blank from your own records, outside this site.
- Never type patient details here, and never e-mail them to us.
What happens after the packet is ready?
- Your staff tick the 4 paperwork boxes.
- Your physician reads the packet and confirms it.
- Download it, fill in the blanks, and your physician signs it.
- Your staff send it to the plan. We never send anything.
- When the plan decides, open the case and tell us what it decided.
The plan said no again. What now?
- Start a new case for the next step, such as a specialty review for a Texas plan.
- "What we make" shows the next steps we cover for each kind of plan.
Something in a packet looks wrong.
- Your physician can change answers on the case page and make the packet again.
- Each change makes a new version, and your staff check it again.
How do I add someone to my team?
- Only your practice manager can. Go to Team, pick their role and make an invite link.
- Send the link to them yourself. It works one time, for 7 days.
I can't sign in, or I lost my phone.
- Ask your practice manager to remove your name and send you a new invite link.
- If the practice manager is locked out, they contact us.
Still stuck? Practice managers can e-mail us at hello@provlyappeals.com. Give the case code only, never patient details.
