What is an External Review
An External Review is a review of a medical case conducted by a Physician Advisor who is responsible for reviewing care provided by 
the primary physician, but is not a member of the physicians’ healthcare organization, and is unaffiliated with the primary care organization.
External Reviews, also called External Utilization Reviews serve as a final level of patient protection in coverage disputes, and have been mandated by the Patient Protection and Affordability Care Act.
If a patient has received care from a medical professional, and that care has been denied an appeal process will ensue. If a patient has exhausted the appropriate appeal channels through their health insurance provider, they are guaranteed the right, by federal law, to request that an External Review of their case be conducted by an Independent Review Organization. Determinations made during the course of the External Review process are final and legally binding.
