The Cost of Inaction

Every Month You Wait Is Revenue Lost Forever

65%

Denied Claims Never Appealed

Most physicians never challenge insurance denials. Every month without action means tens of thousands in permanently lost revenue.

We Handle Collections Too

Many providers struggle to collect after winning IDR. We manage the entire post-decision process, pursuing every dollar awarded so you actually receive your payment.

4yr

Statute of Limitations

Federal and state deadlines limit how far back you can recover. Claims from 2022 are already approaching their filing window.

1.5 million+ IDR disputes were filed in 2024. Physicians across the country are taking action. Are you?

The Reality

Insurance Companies Bank on Your Silence

They systematically underpay, knowing most physicians are too busy to fight back.

EOBs at $0

Complex procedures reimbursed at pennies on the dollar—or nothing at all. The average out-of-network physician receives only 15% of billed charges.

Endless Appeals

Hours wasted on hold, transferred between departments, still no resolution. Insurance companies profit from your lack of time.

QPA Manipulation

Insurers set artificially low Qualifying Payment Amounts using cherry-picked data, suppressing what they owe you by 40-70%.

Unknown Options

Most physicians don't know the No Surprises Act created a federal arbitration pathway to recover underpayments going back years.

The Solution

Federal Law Is on Your Side

The No Surprises Act created a powerful tool for physicians to fight back.

Independent Dispute Resolution

Since 2022, the No Surprises Act provides a federally-mandated arbitration process that levels the playing field. Providers win 75%+ of disputes, with median awards ~4.5x the insurer's initial offer.

Combined with ERISA appeals for employer-sponsored plans, we use a dual-strategy approach to maximize your recovery across all claim types.

  • Binding arbitration decided by neutral third parties
  • Fair market rate determinations—not insurer QPAs
  • No impact on your hospital relationships
  • Recoveries from $100K to $6.4M+ per practice
  • Both IDR and ERISA strategies available

Average Underpayment Rate

Out-of-network physicians receive as little as 15% of billed rates. The No Surprises Act was designed to fix this—but only if you take action.

Everything you need to know about recovering your revenue.

Most out-of-network claims for emergency services, hospital-based procedures, and services where patients didn't have the opportunity to choose an in-network provider qualify under the No Surprises Act. This includes anesthesiology, radiology, pathology, emergency medicine, and surgical services.

The typical IDR timeline is 60-120 days from filing to decision. Our average across all cases is 90 days. We begin identifying recovery opportunities within the first week of receiving your EOBs.

You'll need to provide your underpaid EOBs (Explanation of Benefits), original claims, and basic procedure information. Our team handles all the legal preparation, fair market rate analysis, and filing from there.

No. The No Surprises Act arbitration process is between you (the provider) and the insurance company. It has no bearing on your hospital privileges, contracts, or relationships. Hospitals often benefit as well.

We work on a pure contingency basis—there are no upfront costs, no retainers, and no fees unless we successfully recover funds for you. Our interests are fully aligned with yours.

IDR (Independent Dispute Resolution) is the federal arbitration process under the No Surprises Act for out-of-network payment disputes. ERISA appeals target employer-sponsored health plans and can recover underpayments through a different legal framework. We use both strategies to maximize your total recovery. Learn more →

Because we work on a pure contingency basis, you owe nothing if we don't recover funds. If an IDR decision is unfavorable, we analyze whether alternative strategies (such as ERISA appeals or state-level remedies) may apply. Providers win the majority of IDR disputes, and our case selection process focuses on claims with the strongest recovery potential.

The No Surprises Act took effect January 1, 2022, so IDR disputes can address claims from that date forward. For ERISA appeals, the lookback period can extend further. The sooner you act, the more you can recover before statute of limitations deadlines pass.
