Timely Filing Appeal

Appeal a claim denied for late submission with proof of timely filing.

Insurers deny claims for timely filing when they believe the claim was submitted after the deadline. A successful appeal requires proof of when the claim was actually submitted.

What we analyze

  • The filing deadline stated in the denial
  • Your submission records and proof of delivery
  • Plan provisions on filing timelines and extensions
  • Whether the insurer's deadline calculation is correct
  • Any prior correspondence about the claim

What you'll need

  • Timely filing denial letter
  • Proof of claim submission (electronic confirmation, certified mail receipt, etc.)
  • Plan documents on filing deadlines
  • Any correspondence acknowledging receipt of the claim

What Appeal Mail identifies

  • Whether your submission records contradict the denial's timeline
  • Errors in the insurer's deadline calculation
  • Plan provisions that may allow extensions or exceptions
  • Evidence of prior submission acknowledgment

What your appeal can address

  • Proof of timely submission with documentation
  • Disputes with the insurer's deadline calculation
  • Plan provisions supporting an extension or exception
  • A request for the claim to be processed on the merits
