If I could give zero stars
If I could give zero stars, I would. I had injured my hip running with an X-ray showing there is a bone growth and potential cartilage damage. Paying for an MRI out of pocket because it was denied. Based on the findings of the x ray and that MRI, there is clear evidence of an issue with the labrum and some calcification of the bone in the joint. Doctor submits for the next MRI with contrast into the hip, and it was denied again with the denial stating, I only have hip pain and need to undergo physical therapy.... since when and insurance companies become doctors. I don't understand what I am paying for. This is an employer led plan. And I pay a lot of money every paycheck. I've literally paid more into the insurance than we've used from the insurance... to be denied for imaging is ridiculous. To be told to undertake, pt that will further damage the joint is ridiculous. I'm hoping peer review goes a little bit better...
