A claim has been rejected on the basis that the provided medical service appears excessive for the patient's condition. What is the most efficient method a medical office should use to address this type of rejection?
Transfer the balance directly to the patient without appealing the insurance company's decision.
Resubmit the claim immediately with the same codes in the hope that the claim will not be flagged the second time.
Send a generic appeal without including additional justifying documentation or detailed explanation.
Appeal the rejection with a letter of medical necessity and any pertinent documentation that supports the service being medically necessary for the patient's condition.
