External review

This state operates an external review process that meets federal standards, per KFF. Your final denial notice names who handles it. For some plans, including self-funded employer plans, a federal process applies instead.

Official page: Delaware Department of Insurance: Independent Health Care Appeals Program (IHCAP). Found 2026-10-20; we checked that the page loads and mentions external review. Your denial notice still controls who handles your review.

Before you file

1. Many people appeal to the insurer first and keep copies; a complaint generally does not stop appeal or lawsuit deadlines.
2. Check whether your plan is state-regulated: self-funded employer plans are usually outside state jurisdiction.
3. Use the complaint summary letter to organize your answers, then use the department's own form.
