Resolved Question: Health insurance denial for treatment and “self-funded” plan rules?
My doctor tried to get preauthorization for treating a medical condition of mine more than nine months ago. My insurance stubbornly denied it time after time after time. Between these ?time after time? periods, the requests were lost in the mail (if you believe that), papers were ?misplaced? by them, and there were delays because of practically every little thing. Eventually, my case went to an external review board that ruled in my favor, over-turning the plans denial; the insurance has to pay for my treatment now. This ruling in my favor came just last week, the same week that my coverage with this health plan ended as a result of my COBRA continuation coverage expiring. I believe my insurance should still have to pay for the treatment, because I would have had the treatments months ago, when I was covered, if it weren?t for the insurances negligence and incompetence.
Open Question: Will COBRA cover post-surgery visits costs (physical therapy and doctor visits) in between jobs?
I had surgery while employed and their is a 30 day gap of current coverage and new job coverage. I have a follow up doctor visit once a month and about 6 more weeks of physical therapy. Will COBRA cover those visits in that month? Also, COBRA coverage may be expensive because i have a PPO now, will a private health insurance company cover me or accept my application?
Open Question: What do self employed people do when they get injured on the job?
My father is a general contractor and has his own small business. He was recently at a job, slipped on some ice in the driveway, and broke his ankle. He’s now out of work for 6 to 8 weeks. I know that when one of his crew members got injured, they filed a claim with workman’s comp.
Our health insurance (Cobra) is covering the cost of surgery and everything else medical, but I want to know if he’s going to be able to get unemployment or disability or anything while he’s unable to work.
If it’s relevant we live in Idaho and my mother was recently laid off.
