Get help from your state

Your state insurance office can help you if you don’t agree with a decision made by your health plan or if you decide to appeal a decision.

  • Choose the state you live in if your medical plan is self-funded.
  • Choose the contract state if your medical plan is insured.

If you are not sure, ask your employer or call the toll-free number on the back of your medical plan ID card to find out which type of plan you have.

Get help from the federal government

The Health Care Reform law includes rules about appeals. Many plans have to follow these rules. If your plan is covered by the law, contact the Employee Benefits Security Administration (EBSA) at 1-866-444-EBSA (3272) for help with an appeal.
