I'm not a medical doctor, nor a clinician that does colonoscopies, so I have no idea. All I know is that the clinic suggested by my primary care physician set everything up and UHC denied it 10 days prior to the procedure, leaving me almost no time to work through any sort of processes to effectively change their decision--if it's even possible.

Without any real evidence except a hunch, I think it's because I've already met my deductible for the year and they don't want to pay for the entire thing and they'll do anything they can to avoid having it happen this year and hope I just go away or do it in another year when I haven't hit my deductible.
