Dental insurance companies often deny necessary treatment claims not because they should, but because they can—and we explore how to fight back effectively through appeals and regulatory complaints.

• 59% of denied claims are upheld simply because no appeal is ever filed
• Unreasonable denials occur when patients have benefits but claims are still denied
• State insurance commissioners can investigate denials and prompt payment violations
• Understanding the difference between fully-insured and self-funded (ERISA) plans
• For self-funded plans, complaints must go to the Department of Labor (866-444-3272)
• Gather evidence including denials, submission reports, and clinical notes
• Position your complaint as patient advocacy rather than financial recovery
• Insurance companies cannot dictate treatment or force doctors to work for free

Remember: You're not just a biller—you are the patient advocate and the system of checks and balances they didn't see coming.
