Get the denial in writing, with the reason; a phone "no" is not a denial. Ask what income figure they used and from what document; last year's tax return is not this year's job. Ask for the policy; a nonprofit hospital is required to have one and to show it to you. Income changed? Apply again with proof. Some hospitals count savings and some do not, so read their policy. A denial is a first answer.
Got a no? BillFighter reads the hospital's own policy against your numbers and writes the appeal.
Check your bill — freeThe check is free. The letter is the paid part: you print and mail it yourself, or we send it by certified mail for you. No account needed to start.
This is the general rule, in plain words. BillFighter is not a law firm and does not give legal advice. If you have been served with court papers, that is the day for a lawyer or legal aid.
