For many patients with terminal illnesses like cancer, aggressive or unconventional treatments offer the only real chance to significantly prolong their lives. Unfortunately, disputes sometimes arise between patients and health insurance carriers over coverage. This leaves some patients feeling their only option is to take the insurance company to court. The Patient Advocacy Coalition in Denver, Colorado, founded by attorney Heidi Frey, offers an alternative to litigation for patients who are denied coverage. The Coalition helps guide patients through the appeals process by providing free advice and support on how to present a comprehensive and compelling case.
