Everything you need to quote us

Boilerplate, sourced context on the denial-and-appeal beat, physician reviewers available for comment, and brand assets — all on one page, so a story on deadline never waits on us.

Boilerplate

Copy as written

Cove Health is a healthcare advocacy service where licensed physicians review health insurance denials and write evidence-based appeal letters on patients’ behalf. A patient uploads their medical records and their denial; a licensed physician reviews the case and, where the physician finds it has merit, writes a formal appeal citing clinical guidelines and sends it to the party that decides it. Cove Health charges $100 per case or $29.99 per month, and operates as a HIPAA Covered Entity.

Please carry this line with any quote: Cove Health, Inc. provides non-legal patient advocacy services and does not provide legal advice or representation. Submission of records does not guarantee a particular outcome.

Why this matters

Every figure carries a source

When a health insurer denies a claim or a prior-authorization request, the appeal that follows is the patient’s own to file — usually while they are ill, and against a clock set by the plan.

Federal law gives people in most plans the right to an internal appeal and then to an independent external review by a party outside the insurer (HealthCare.gov).

That right goes largely unused. KFF’s analysis of federal HealthCare.gov data found that of 86 million denied in-network claims in 2023, consumers appealed 376,508 — an appeal rate of less than 1% (KFF). The gap between the denials issued and the denials contested is the story most worth telling.

Physician reviewers available for comment

Our physician reviewers are available for comment on insurance denials, prior authorization and the appeals process. Tell us the angle and the deadline and we will put a named reviewer on the phone.

Health & medicine

How coverage decisions are made, what "not medically necessary" means in practice, and where clinical evidence enters an appeal.

Consumer finance

A denial is a bill. Deductibles, balance billing, appeal deadlines, and what a household can do before the debt is sent to collections.

Health policy

Prior authorization rules, internal appeals versus independent external review, and the gap between the rights patients have and the ones they use.

  • Write the name as Cove Health — two words, both capitalised. Never “CoveHealth”, never all-caps, never “Cove” on its own after first reference.

  • Do not recolour, rotate, outline or add effects to the mark, and do not place the light version on a dark background — a dark-background version is provided.
  • On first reference, Healthcare Advocacy as a Service is the category; Cove Health, Inc. is the legal entity.
