Helen,
Thanks I will give it a try if the nursing home doesn't get anywhere.
For now the nursing home told me to let them try to appeal it themselves
and they will let me know if and when they feel they need my help. My
first time in the nursing home was last July and then again in September
so it isn't looking good.
I did save it to my favorites in case I need it.
Don't know if it will work in the case of the doctor who owes me money
since it is no longer with the insurance because the doctor now owes
"me" the money not them.
Guess it wouldn't hurt to ask them if they know what to do in a case
like that.
