Even minor illnesses and injuries can cost thousands of dollars to diagnose and
treat. Serious illnesses can be financially devastating. Having adequate health
care coverage not only helps ensure that you’ll get the care you need, but also
helps protect you and your family from large financial losses in the event of an
illness or injury.
All HMOs must have an internal appeals procedure to allow members to contest a
decision to deny medically necessary treatment, including denials of medications
that are not on the HMO’s formulary. After you exhaust your appeal rights within
the HMO, you can request an Independent Review Organization (IRO) to review the
denial. The IRO may agree with the HMO’s decision or reverse the HMO’s decision.
The HMO must pay for the review, and the IRO’s decision is binding on the HMO.
An IRO review is only available if the HMO decides that the covered service or
treatment is not medically necessary. For example, the IRO review is not
available if the decision to deny coverage is due to an exclusion in your
contract. In addition, not all health plans are subject to the IRO review
process. Contact your plan to determine whether an IRO review is available to
you when services or treatments are denied.
