| HMO refusal of ER coverage | ||
By Linda Cahn
|
As an attorney, I have been approached by several individuals
who have been refused coverage by HMOs for emergency room treatment. Preliminary research
that I have conducted indicates that this is a widespread problem that is causing enormous
distortion in the delivery of medical treatment, as well as leaving numerous hospitals and
individuals with uncovered emergency room bills. I would be interested in learning of others' perceptions on this problem. How widespread is it? Which HMOs are particularly notorious for refusing payments, without justification for doing so? etc. |
