Medical Necessity Denials Surged 70% — Is Your Documentation Protecting You?

Yes, medical necessity denials are surging at rates that now constitute a structural revenue threat, not an administrative inconvenience, and your clinical documentation is either your strongest shield or your most expensive liability.
