We are responsible for any costs and fees from the outside review agency for the external appeal, not to exceed $75.00 per benefit year. We will refund you if the denial is reversed and will waive the fee if it imposes an undue hardship on you. For all non-emergency appeals, the external appeal agency will notify you of its determination within ten (10) business days of the agency’s receipt of the information. For all emergency external appeals, the external appeals agency will notify you of its determination no later than seventy-two (72) hours from the agency’s receipt of the appeal. The determination by the outside review agency is binding upon us. This External Appeal is voluntary. This means you may choose to participate in this level of appeal, or you may file suit in an appropriate court of law (Please see Legal Action, below).
