A denial is a document that asks for a better document.Responder writes it in minutes.

How it works

4 steps from question to artifact.

Runs in the background. Documents are extracted and PHI-scrubbed locally in your browser before anything leaves it.

  1. Step 01

    Read the denial

    The payer letter is parsed for the denial reason, the policy cited, the appeal stage, and every deadline that matters.

    Denial · stage · timeline
  2. Step 02

    Match the clinical picture

    Consult notes, imaging, pathology, and the treatment plan are mapped against the payer's medical-necessity criteria point by point.

    Criteria · evidence map
  3. Step 03

    Bring the dosimetry

    For proton and photon cases, a comparative DVH is selected or attached so the letter argues with numbers, not adjectives.

    DVH comparison
  4. Step 04

    Write for the stage

    Initial appeal, second level, independent review, or ALJ: tone, citations, and required timeline fields change with the stage.
