Florida state complaint route

Where to file an insurance complaint in Florida.

For state-regulated commercial, ACA, or individual coverage, the primary Florida route is the Florida Department of Financial Services, Division of Consumer Services.

Florida insurance consumer questions and complaints commonly route through DFS Consumer Services.

Note: if your plan is an employer self-funded plan (most large-employer plans), Medicare, Medicaid, FEHB, TRICARE, or VA, the state insurance department is NOT the right route. Check the plan type on your member ID card before filing.

Common Florida bill issues

What to look for first.

The eight most common billing errors apply everywhere — but here's how to start in Florida.

02

Compare to your EOB

If your provider balance doesn't match the patient responsibility on your insurer's EOB, that's a red flag. Read the EOB-mismatch guide.

04

Check for charity care

Cleveland Clinic Florida and other Florida non-profit hospitals publish 501(r) financial assistance policies. 7-minute application guide.

05

Use the No Surprises Act

Emergency, out-of-network at in-network facility, or air ambulance? The federal protection applies to Florida patients.

06

If self-pay, use the GFE rule

If your final bill is $400+ above your Good Faith Estimate, file a CMS dispute.
