Questions
Is the check really free?
Yes. You see the reason, your deadline and what to send for free. You only pay $49 for the ready-to-send appeal letter and phone script.
Is my letter uploaded?
No. The photo or PDF is read on your phone, in your browser. We never receive it, and we never ask for your medical records.
Do appeals work?
Often. In 2023, 44% of appealed in-network denials in HealthCare.gov plans were overturned, yet only about 1% of denials were appealed (KFF).
Is this medical or legal advice?
No. AppealCheck is information to help you appeal. Your doctor's support often makes the difference.
Does it work in Spanish?
Yes. The app is in English and Spanish. The appeal is written in English for your insurer, with a Spanish translation for you.
