Hi,
My name is Erin and I am trying to help a friend of mine with a brachial plexus injury write an appeal letter to her insurance company. She needs to go out of state to have a special surgery. Of course, insurance is denying her coverage. Do you know of anyone that has dealt with this sort of thing and might be willing to share some letter-writing tips?
Thank you so much.
Erin G.

Re: writing an appeal letter to insurance
I'm going to look through my files to see if I can find the letter I wrote. It is definitly the best thing to do. You mainly have to push the fact that the doctors in your area are not specialist in Adult trauma brachial plexus injuries. Dr's who operate on newborns do not specialize in Adults. Very different situation.
