Hi and welcome to the group. lots of insurance companies (including
UHC) routinely deny. There are a lot of sample appeal letters in the
files section of this group. One thing would be to get them to deny in
writing and state their reason - then you'll have something to
address. I hope that you will get them to pay, but it can take
several appeals, and they still may not pay. Don't be too discouraged
though because a lot of people do win the appeal.
Best of luck with it.
