AppealLettersOnline Featured Letters
Carriers frequently renew contracts automatically on a yearly basis without initiating a discussion of the contract
terms. AppealLettersOnline.com has added a letter for you to use to request
contract renegotiation. This letter notifies the carriers that you wish to
review payer claim processing performance and discuss updates to fee schedule
allowances and contractual protections. This letter can be easily customized to
highlight specific areas of concern so that the payer representative will be
prepared to discuss the topics of greatest impact to your office or facility. The new letter
can be downloaded in the "Managed Care" section.
