How We Help

We handle every stage, from your first request for more hours to a fair hearing with New York State.

Stage 1

Request for Increase

We help you file a formal request to your MLTC for more authorized home care hours, backed by medical documentation and a Letter of Medical Necessity from your doctor.

Stage 2

Internal Appeal

If your request is denied, we prepare and submit a comprehensive Internal Appeal, challenging the MLTC's adverse determination with supporting evidence.

Stage 3

Fair Hearing

When appeals are denied, we take your case to a NYS Fair Hearing. We prepare your evidence, analyze the UAS report, and write a Memo of Law.
