What is the process for appealing a denied claim?

Asked 7 months ago
If your claim is denied by Blue Cross Blue Shield, you have the right to appeal the decision. The first step is to review the denial letter provided to understand the reason for denial. You can then gather any additional documentation or information to support your case. Submit a written appeal, including all relevant information and supporting documentation, within the specified timeframe. The appeal will be reviewed by a different team at Blue Cross Blue Shield to reassess the denial decision. You will be notified of the outcome of the appeal in writing. If the appeal is denied, you may have the option to escalate the appeal further.
