Failure to Pay Timely

Managed care companies use still another ploy: slow-pay/no-pay. The systematic delay or denial of payments - which often violates state law - enables the health care companies to reap substantial additional profits from the millions of dollars they were obligated to pay hospitals, nursing homes and doctors but which they retain in their own coffers and invest for additional gain. Patients whose managed care company has failed to make payment for their medical services need to hire a lawyer. Money magazine reported that a Duke University study found that almost 50% of breast cancer patients' bone marrow transplant claims that were initially rejected by insurers were approved after the patient hired a lawyer.
