Over the last year, UnitedHealthcare has been stingier and stingier with paying out on several different monthly claims that my family has. Since these claims are identical month to month, I can really see the difference over time.
The last one they denied by bungling the date to make it appear that the claim was from a date when that family member wasn’t covered (they transposed a 0 and a 1 to turn an October into a January), while paying at least something on those identical claims for other months. When I challenged it, I got back a determination letter that was so ungrammatical and full of newly invented excuses for not paying the claim that I immediately logged onto Healthcare.gov to buy a plan myself, and then filed paperwork to stop paying for the UnitedHealthcare plan through work.
But what can I do for the claim that UH is inventing reasons not to cover? What can I do for the last three months of claims I still need to submit to them. Am I just at their mercy?
