Medical lien negotiation

Medical Lien Negotiation Services

Medical provider balances and Letter of Protection claims are the balances most likely to erode a client's net recovery. We verify them, negotiate them, and document the outcome so your firm can disburse with confidence.

Where reductions come from

Reductions follow the record, not goodwill.

A reduction request that simply asks for a discount tends to be declined. We build the argument from what the file actually supports.

The balance is rarely the final number
Asserted balances often include charges that are unrelated to the incident, duplicated across billing entities, already written down by an adjustment, or billed at rates the provider does not actually collect. Verification comes before negotiation.
Settlement economics matter
A defensible reduction request accounts for the settlement amount, available policy limits, attorney fees and costs, comparative fault, and what the client would actually retain. We put that context in front of the provider.
Persistence is most of the work
Providers and billing companies rarely respond to a single letter. Scheduled follow-up, correct escalation contacts, and documented history are what move a balance.

The negotiation workflow

From intake to written confirmation.

  1. 01Receive the file, billing, and lien correspondence through a secure intake.
  2. 02Verify balances and confirm every lienholder attached to the matter.
  3. 03Prepare a case-specific negotiation strategy and reduction objective.
  4. 04Submit documented reduction requests to the correct decision-maker.
  5. 05Manage follow-ups and counteroffers on a scheduled cadence.
  6. 06Present the final reduction to your firm for approval.
  7. 07Collect written confirmation and closing documentation for the file.

The final reduction is always presented to your firm for approval before anything is treated as resolved. Reductions vary according to the case, provider, lienholder, documentation, available settlement funds, and other circumstances. No specific reduction, savings amount, or completion date is guaranteed.
