Anna Crawford :
Insurance should have until 30 days until surgery to decide. If a doctor deems it emergency, they should not be able to deny at all.

a radical class action suit for malpractice should be done to fix this and for future operations

UnitedHealth Group and United Healthcare care more about their shareholders than they do their policyholders. Shame!!

bassettmomma2020 :
how is there not some kind of law or statute that says if a surgery is going to be denied it has to be done a certain amount of time before hand? It should not be legal to continue "reviewing" even a week before the surgery much less day of.

Please explain to me how a surgery is scheduled if there is not an PRE AUTHORIZATION already in hand. I worked insurance in a hospital for 9 years. That was 15 years ago so I'm not sure what has changed.❤️

I got denied by UMR for my thyroid ablation vs surgery. My doctor’s office helped me fight it because they knew I didn’t want surgery unless the ablation failed. UMR’s downfall was I did my research & found out I was allergic to the medication after surgery & the approval came through for the ablation a few days later.

Lisa Waisath🇺🇸☮️❤️ :
My insurance tried to deny my childbirth & subsequent hospital care because we didn’t request a preauthorization. They knew I was pregnant, covered my OB care just fine…but required a preauthorization request. My entire labor was about 5 hours in the middle of the night. Calling insurance to ask permission to give birth was not a high priority. They ended up covering it but OMFG!!

Karen , but not A KAREN :
meds denied for MS...they want to go back to the cheapest meds that I already failed on. My neurologist is beyond frustrated with the insurance company. meanwhile I go months with nothing or pay $6000 a month for pills or pay $20000 to try an infusion that may or may not work.

The typical endometriosis patient waits 12-15 years before they are diagnosed and treated (depending on which country you live in). I’d been suspected of it and. Clinically diagnosed from age 17, finally operated on at age 28, I’m now 40, and have had 4 surgeries and I’m awaiting my 5th.

Alextok :
Wait wait wait, how many days prior did they submit prior authorization? Of course I agree it should be medically necessary…but most insurance takes about 15 days for authorization. I am no longer surprised seeing providers send authorizations a day or two prior to the procedure…which was scheduled 3 months in advanced.🙃

How is this legal? If a doctor a surgeon at that decides it’s a necessity why are they to say other wise??

an insurance company cannot determine the medical necessity of a patient they've never seen. sue them for practicing medicine without a license
