Florida does not run its own external review process
No rate is shown for Florida, because this dataset holds no Florida decisions. California's numbers are California's and do not transfer.
What was found
verified 2026-09-04- External review process
- No state process. Appeals go to the external review administered for the federal Department of Health and Human Services.
- What is published
- Nothing published; consumers are directed to MAXIMUS Federal Services
- What that means
- No state external review process. The ERISA gap and the state-map gap are the same gap here, and a Florida resident is outside this dataset regardless of plan type.
What is true in every state. A federal right to an external review of most denials exists regardless of where you live, and your state’s insurance regulator or consumer-assistance program can tell you the route and the deadline for free. If your plan is a self-funded employer plan, that appeal goes to the federal process wherever you are — and that process publishes no decisions, so nothing here or anywhere describes its outcomes. Whether this covers you.
