Helping You Resolve Health Insurance Disputes
After many years of faithfully contributing to your health coverage for you and your family members, you are shocked and saddened to find out that your insurance company is using excuses for delaying or denying the benefits that you or a loved one is entitled to because of an accident or illness.
You don’t have to put up with this. Federal and state law gives you certain rights to contest benefit denials. If the policy was not employer-provided, you may have a cause of action for insurance bad faith under California law.
Providing Skilled And Personalized Representation
At the Law Office of Robert F. Keehn, we have the knowledge and experience to challenge health insurance benefit denials in both the ERISA and non-ERISA settings. Our founding attorney uses his 30-plus years of experience and record of excellent results to work hard for the justice you deserve. Because of his years of experience and understanding of the insurance industry, he understands how to best protect your interests.
If you are suffering from an injury or illness, you likely are badly in need of claim proceeds. Therefore, it is an unpleasant surprise to experience a health insurance claim denial. You likely are badly in need of such financial support. Medical expense is often a prime contributor to personal bankruptcies due to exorbitant medical debt.
If you are in dispute over health care or other coverage, we are always ready to take your side.
Getting Insurance Companies To Honor Their Policies
Sadly, Southern California HMOs and health insurance companies profit by withholding benefits from policyholders.
Placing profits over your well-being is the definition of bad faith. Attorney Robert F. Keehn uses his skills to negotiate, litigate and mediate disputes while upholding policyholder rights. If necessary, he can appeal your case to the California Department of Managed Care.
Here are just a few examples of the scenarios in which Robert F. Keehn’s experience and client commitment can benefit you:
Here are just a few examples of the scenarios in which Robert F. Keehn’s experience and client commitment can benefit you:
- An expensive medical procedure is pre-approved, only to have the insurer reverse its position and refuse to pay following completion of the surgery.
- Payment for a treatment or procedure is withheld, after the fact, because it is allegedly “experimental,” despite disagreements from the medical community.
- Helping those suffering from a rare disease treated by only a few specialists in the country.
- A denial for out-of-network emergency care when a patient was in no condition to contact an insurer for pre-approval.
The legal process will be different depending on whether you purchased your insurance coverage directly from your insurance company or through your employer. But either way, Robert has the litigation skills and commitment to clients to challenge claim denials. He has seen it work successfully from a variety of perspectives. Through attention to detail and listening to you, he understands how to help you get the benefits you are paying for.
