The Department of Financial Services (DFS) reviews alleged prompt pay claim payment violations pursuant to s. 627.6131 and 641.3155, Florida Statutes. A summary of the timelines insurance companies and Health Maintenance Organizations (HMO) are required to meet is available under "Additional Information". Claims not paid or denied by the insurance company or HMO in accordance with Florida regulations should be submitted with written documentation indicating the claims were received by the health plan.
If it is determined that your claims fall within the regulatory authority of the DFS, you will be requested to submit up to five of your outstanding claims for each company. If necessary, we will request additional claims or documentation from you.
Under s. 408.7057, Florida Statutes, claims which involve a dispute regarding whether payment should be made or the amount of a payment, should be referred to FLCDR@capitolbridge.com or by calling (800) 889-0549. More information can be obtained by visiting the AHCA’s website at Statewide Provider and Health Plan Claim Dispute Resolution Program FAQ | Florida Agency for Health Care Administration (myflorida.com).
