Book a call The appeals desk
The system counts on the appeal you never file.
Every denial letter is written to be put down. Every prior-auth clock is set hoping you'll lose track of it. We publish the timelines, the codes, and the letters because a therapist with the right paragraph wins more often than the paperwork wants you to know.
Appeal letters that get read
Editable templates for the common denials: medical necessity, frequency limits, downcoding, telehealth. You supply the facts and the clinical judgment; the template keeps the argument from starting on a blank page.
Prior-auth clocks by payer
Who has how many days to answer you, what starts the clock, and what to send the day they miss it. What "soon" means in practice calendars, not marketing calendars.
Parity complaints: NY · NJ · CT
When a denial breaks parity law, which agency handles which plan type, what to gather, and how to describe the problem in concrete terms. Navigation, not legal advice.
The dated policy tracker
What changed, when it published, and what a working clinician should do about it. Every entry carries a source and a last-verified date. Old information stays marked as old.
