Will I need to fill out paperwork for an internal appeal?
Correct!
To file an internal appeal, you need to complete all forms required by your health insurer, or you can write to your insurer with your name, claim number, and health insurance ID number. Submit any additional information you want the insurer to consider, to help explain why you believe the company’s decision was wrong. Often a letter from the doctor explaining by the requested treatment or procedure is “medically necessary” will assist the insurer in reconsidering your claim.
