An award is not a payment. We keep following up with payers until every award is paid.

30-SECOND CHECK

Does your claim qualify for IDR?

Four questions. If the answer is yes, the clock is already running.

Not sure about an answer?

Send us the EOB. We'll screen it for eligibility before any deadline passes.

A quick screen, not a legal determination. Some state-regulated plans use a state dispute process instead of federal IDR.

THE FEDERAL IDR PROCESS

Seven deadlines. Miss one and the claim is gone.

Click a stage to see the rule, and what we do at that step.

Bar widths ≈ time in calendar days

Timelines from CMS guidance on the federal IDR process. Business days exclude weekends and federal holidays.

INSIDE OUR IDR WORKFLOW

Tracked, argued, and collected.

What happens to your claim once it's with us.

01 · DEADLINES

Every NSA window on one board.

Each claim is tracked against its own deadlines and worked by days remaining, not by date received.

  • Open negotiation notices sent inside 30 business days
  • IDR filed inside the 4-business-day window
  • Eligible claims grouped under current batching rules

02 · THE CASE

Offers built on what IDR entities weigh.

The entity picks one offer, yours or the payer's. We make yours the one that's easier to defend.

  • Payment benchmarked before negotiation starts
  • Clinical complexity documented from your records
  • Every offer submitted with its supporting documentation

03 · COLLECTION

Won isn't paid. We collect.

Payers have 30 calendar days to pay an award. We track every one, chase the late ones, and escalate to legal partners when a payer won't pay.

WHAT WE HANDLE
