A letter of medical necessity (LMN) is a letter written by your doctor that verifies the services or items you are purchasing are for the diagnosis, treatment or prevention of a disease or medical condition. This letter is required by the IRS for certain eligible expenses.
What information should be included? Patient Name. A specific diagnosis/treatment needed. The recommended treatment must be described by your licensed healthcare provider. ... Duration of the treatment. A provider may recommend a specific duration of treatment. ... Must be signed by a licensed practitioner. An acceptable LMN form.
CAN A PATIENT WRITE IT? A patient can write the letter, but it needs to be made official by a doctor. Any arguments for any service ultimately have to come from a treating physician. That means the doctor needs to know you, have some history with you, and in the end either write or 'sign off on' the letter.
Well, as we explain in this post, to be considered medically necessary, a service must: \u201cBe safe and effective; Have a duration and frequency that are appropriate based on standard practices for the diagnosis or treatment; Meet the medical needs of the patient; and. Require a therapist's skill.\u201d
\u201cNot medically necessary\u201d means that they don't want to pay for it. People, please. Acme Insurance didn't do a ton of research to find out if you. needed this treatment or not.
