Do the AI assistants name DenialFacts?

denialfacts.com. Measured 2 October 2026.

Answers change from one ask to the next, so each question was asked more than once where the cost allowed (ChatGPT: 10 questions x 3; Perplexity: 10 questions x 3; Google AI Overview: 10 questions x 1; Claude: 5 questions x 1; Gemini: 5 questions x 1). A count is what happened on that day, not a ranking, and the same check next week can differ.

answered with your name.

Perplexity: "Tell me about DenialFacts"

answered with your name.

**DenialFacts** is an independent website focused on U.S. health-insurance claim denials and appeals. It combines public insurance data with practical guidance for challenging denied claims. - It publishes denial-rate data by insurer and state, drawing on CMS Transparency in Coverage files.[1][4] - It explains the appeal process, including the typical **180-day internal-appeal deadline** and the **four-month external-review window** after a final internal denial.[2] - It distinguishes denials t...

The assistant said: A service that helps people whose claims were denied by tracking and dating federal appeal deadlines and assisting with appeals (including external reviews) so they can overturn denials.

What to fix, in order

Level 1: the facts the assistants hold about you are right

Done Assistants describe you when asked by name

2 of 2 engines answered with your name or your site A stranger checks you by name before they get in touch; an empty or wrong answer loses them there.

Re-test after the fix: Tell me about DenialFacts

Done The top of your home page says what you do, and for whom

With web search off, the assistant read it as: "A service that helps people whose claims were denied by tracking and dating federal appeal deadlines and assisting with appeals (including external reviews) so they can overturn denials." If an assistant cannot say what you do from your own words, it will not repeat you to a buyer.

Re-test after the fix: Paste everything above the fold of your home page into a temporary chat, then ask: What does this business do? Answer in one sentence.

Done Your main headline names your trade

Headline read: "32.8% of external reviews overturned the denial; you get there only if your dates hold." One plain sentence, the same on every profile, is what the assistants copy.

Re-test after the fix: What does DenialFacts do, and who is it for?

Done A FAQ the assistants can read

An FAQ the assistants can read at https://denialfacts.com/ (6 headings written as questions) The word FAQ alone never passes: this check counts only FAQPage markup with 2 questions, or 3 headings written as questions.

Re-test after the fix: What do buyers usually ask DenialFacts before they get in touch, and what are the answers?

Check by hand One services page lists every offer

Our script cannot tell if 1 page lists every offer; open your services page beside your price list and tick each one off. Assistants look for a home page, a services page, reviews and an about page; offers split across pages get missed.

Re-test after the fix: What services does DenialFacts offer, and what do they cost?

Check by hand Your Google listing, LinkedIn and directory entries say the same sentence

A script cannot read your signed-in profiles; compare each one with your home page headline. Facts that disagree across sources end in an omission or a wrong answer.

Re-test after the fix: Tell me about DenialFacts

Done An AI agent can reach the free appeal letter from your home page

/appeal-letter reached in 1 link(s) from home, HTTP 200 Assistants now act as well as answer: a page they cannot reach in 2 links is a page they skip.

Re-test after the fix: Using only denialfacts.com, how do I get the free appeal letter? Give me the exact page.

Done The files assistants read first (robots.txt, sitemap, llms.txt)

Level 5 Agent-native of 5, 19 of 19 checks pass on our own scanner They are the cheapest way to be read correctly.

Re-test after the fix: Read https://denialfacts.com/llms.txt and tell me what DenialFacts offers.

Level 2: you are suggested to strangers

To fix Own 3 or 4 buyer questions, one page each

Named in 0 of 78 buyer answers across all engines; on 10 of 10 questions at least one engine neither named nor cited you Pick the questions buyers ask just before they hire, in their own words, and answer each on one page.

Re-test after the fix: my health insurer denied my claim what do I do

Check by hand Publish proof only you have: your numbers, named results, a clear view

Assistants already hold endless generic tips; your own numbers and results are what they cannot get elsewhere.

Re-test after the fix: how do I appeal a health insurance claim denial

Check by hand A short summary at the top of every main page

Put the answer in the first lines of each page, then the detail.

Re-test after the fix: my health insurer denied my claim what do I do

Level 3: other sites confirm you

Check by hand Be mentioned on the sites the assistants cite for your buyers' questions

Cited most often for these questions: www.kff.org (23), www.healthcare.gov (22), www.cms.gov (14), appealflow.net (11), content.naic.org (9), www.medicalrecords.com (9) Your site is the base; a mention on a site the assistants already quote confirms it.
