Coming from someone who talks to seniors on the daily selling these advantage plans, I rarely hear claims being denied. I do hear that they take a while to pay claims but this usually doesn’t affect the client just the office that is doing the billing. That’s why there is always controversy with hospitals and groups dropping carriers, bc they’re not getting paid fast enough so they threaten to drop their network. Then almost always they come to an agreement. I hate our medical system as a whole but would think I would get a lot more angry clients if their claims were being denied like this article is claiming. The people that complain the most usually have no idea how the system works and missed a step in processing and that’s why their claims was denied.
