Medicare appeals
Since 1989, CMS has relied on Maximus to provide Medicare beneficiaries and providers with independent, conflict-free appeal decisions of health insurance denials. Because we have no financial affiliation with insurers or providers, we are the only conflict-free Independent Review Organization (IRO) providing Medicare appeals. We receive and review more than 600,000 appeals claims a year for Medicare, helping expedite the process to appeals determinations for citizens.
Streamlining independent medical review process for digital transformation
