Hi – first time here. Long story short, I recently saw the medical claim for delivering my child w/insurance (UnitedHealthcare). Insurance partially denied the claim because I was in a “private room” when only a “semi-private” is covered, so I was billed the difference.
The hospital I delivered at currently requires all recovering mothers have private rooms because of Covid restrictions.
Is it worth it to appeal the claim on this basis? I’ve never appealed a claim before.
My insurance company says I need some kind of documentation to support my appeal…what would that look like from the hospital?
Thank you in advance for any tips!
