The IDR Process, Made Simple
We handle every step of the Independent Dispute Resolution process under the No Surprises Act — so you never miss a deadline or lose a claim to insurer tactics.
Submit Your Claim
Send us the claim details (no PHI online — we’ll provide a secure portal after engagement). We review eligibility and confirm it qualifies for IDR.
Start Your Free Case ReviewNegotiation Period
Federal rules require a 30-day open negotiation window with the insurer. We handle communication and document every exchange, preparing for arbitration if necessary.
File for IDR
If negotiations fail, we file the case with a certified IDR entity. We submit a complete position statement, comparator data, and exhibits. We advance fees where needed and bundle claims to lower costs.
IDR Decision
The IDR entity chooses between the provider’s offer and the payer’s offer. Typical decisions are issued in 30–90 days. Providers win ~80% of the time, with awards often 2–4× the insurer’s initial payment.
Payment Enforcement
Once the decision is final, insurers must pay within 30 business days. We follow through to ensure payment is received.
