A patient experiencing painful swelling and an abscess spent three days in the hospital for diagnosed cellulitis that required IV antibiotics and pain medication. The hospital admission was denied by the Medicaid Managed Care plan but reversed after an AppriseMD physician advisor completed a peer-to-peer payer review with the Managed Medicaid plan medical director. The criteria for inpatient hospital care due to cellulitis are quite strict; however, the experienced AppriseMD physician advisor reasoned that the denial should be rescinded based on the high intensity of pain management, leading to the payer medical director approving the higher level of care.

AppriseMD was instrumental in overturning a partial denial from a Medicaid Managed Care Organization. After an AppriseMD physician advisor argued that the patient’s new onset of a neurologic condition on the fifth day of admission counted as a new diagnosis warranting inpatient level of care, the denial was overruled. Full reimbursement is possible with physician advisory expertise and a detailed peer-to-peer discussion.
