Proton Therapy Insurance Denial Attorney

Providing Help When Your Insurance Denies Your Claims

Fighting cancer is more than a full-time job. The physical pain, emotional struggles, and concern for your future are a lot to handle.  When you combine those issues with the extravagant medical costs associated with the illness, life can seem overwhelming.

Many affected by cancer are prescribed proton therapy. This process provides focused radiation doses with less exposure to healthy tissue than traditional radiation.  Unfortunately, proton therapy tends to be more costly than other treatments, thus many insurance companies refuse to pay for it.

A proton therapy insurance denial can spell disaster for patients battling cancer.

If your insurance company has resisted covering your proton therapy treatment, you have recourse. The law requires insurance companies to do right by their clients. When they fail to fairly investigate and delay decisions, and then deny critical treatment for unfair or invalid reasons, they are likely acting in bad faith. In such situations, consulting an Oklahoma City bad faith insurance lawyer can be a crucial step in protecting your rights.

Doug Terry, a leading figure among Oklahoma City health insurance claim lawyers, knows how to deal with health insurance companies who deny cancer treatment, including proton beam therapy. He can help you address this issue and get the coverage you need.

How We Can Help With Your Proton Therapy Denial Legal Action

We Manage the Legal Process From Beginning to End

If you have ever even tried to communicate with your insurance company regarding a claim, you know how difficult getting the simplest response can be. Less than helpful representatives and unanswered calls and emails are commonplace. The answer to every question seems to be “no.”

The resources necessary to successfully resolve unpaid claims is considerable. As an individual dealing with a serious medical condition, you likely don’t have the knowledge, time or energy to manage this process effectively.  This is where we bring value. We know what to do and how to do it; we are tenacious and dedicated to resolving your issues.

In every case, we provide our clients with a free consultation. This interaction provides us a complete understanding of the issues they are facing with their insurance companies and offers them the opportunity to see, firsthand, how we communicate.  When you decide to work with us, we conduct a thorough investigation into your case; we review your policy and all correspondence with your insurance company.

Once we understand the reason why your claim was denied, we can leverage our experience with therapy insurance denial claims and address the issues.

We assume responsibility for all communication with your insurer; you no longer need to contact them.

A critical part of our service to you is identifying and calculating your damages.  We recognize that there are costs associated with the delay of your claim, and making sure they are all included as we move to negotiate is crucial.

With an eye toward their bottom line, insurance companies are well-known for underpaying and denying claims. We know how these organizations operate and can advise you on the appropriateness of their offers.

While we always aim to settle your insurance dispute in the negotiation phase, there are times when we simply cannot reach an agreement that is appropriate for your situation.  In cases like this, we never hesitate to move to the litigation phase; our skilled and aggressive insurance denial attorney will fight on your behalf.

Every action we take is in your best interests. You can rest assured that all paperwork will be completed correctly and submitted in a timely fashion and that throughout the process we will keep you informed as to your case’s status.

Time is always a factor; we are ready to get to work immediately. We will leverage our experience and strong winning record.  We have won $200 million and $25 million verdicts for clients in cases in which an insurer denied proton beam therapy treatments.

Proton Beam Therapy Saves Lives

How It Works

Proton beam therapy is a type of radiation treatment, recommended by highly qualified oncologists, to treat those suffering from a broad range of cancers, including, but not limited to, tumors in the skull, brain, breast, lung, and prostate. Recent advances have made it as effective as IMRT at killing cancer cells, but with greater advantage. Proton therapy delivers radiation in a more precise, controlled way than the less-advanced forms of radiation treatment like IMRT.

Proton beam therapy is a safer and thus more effective cancer treatment than X-ray or photon-based treatments.

While proton therapy is becoming more commonly prescribed, insurance companies all too often deny coverage for this important treatment. Even worse, the insurance industry often utilizes unqualified, untrained, biased, and overworked medical personnel to make these critical claim decisions. Doug Terry believes this practice is just plain wrong and will fight the companies who do it.
