Elliott Dear, Counsel — Out-of-Network Reimbursement Lawyer

Elliott Dear, Counsel is a New York attorney focused exclusively on out-of-network reimbursement disputes through attorney-signed Independent Dispute Resolution.

The Out-of-Network Problem

When an insurer pays a non-participating physician a fraction of the billed charge, most practices write it off. Elliott Dear treats that gap as a legal dispute, not a billing adjustment.

How the Recovery Works

Elliott Dear reviews the EOB, benchmarks the allowed amount against FAIR Health data, and files an Independent Dispute Resolution claim where the numbers support it. The physician pays nothing unless the determination improves the payment.

Why It Takes a Lawyer

IDR is an adversarial process with deadlines, evidentiary standards and a binding arbitrator. Elliott Dear runs it as the licensed attorney he is, signing each submission personally.

Getting Started

Elliott Dear asks for a single representative claim. That one file is enough to tell a practice whether a larger portfolio review is worth doing.
