How It Works
Three steps. One appeal.
DenialDefend integrates directly into your EHR workflow — no copy-pasting, no searching through charts.
1

Upload the Denial

Drop the PDF denial letter into DenialDefend. Our AI reads it and extracts the exact reason for denial, required evidence, and appeal deadline.

2

Auto-Match Evidence

DenialDefend queries your EMR via FHIR — pulling labs, vitals, diagnoses, medications, and clinical notes that directly address the denial reason.

3

Generate & Sign

A formal, evidence-backed appeal letter is generated citing specific clinical findings, ICD-10 codes, and guideline references. Review, edit, and submit.

Features
Built for physicians, by a physician.
Every feature is designed to save you time while maintaining the clinical rigor insurers expect.
🧠

AI That Thinks Like a Doctor

Our appeal letters cite specific lab values, reference clinical guidelines (ACR, AHA/ACC, NCCN), and use the language peer reviewers expect.
