Appeals processing times can vary from state to state and from insurance carrier to insurance carrier.  The best thing to do is to check with Missouri's Department of Managed Health Care or Department of Insurance to get specific information regarding turnaround times to process appeals.  You can also contact the Medicaid's customer support department for more information about turnaround times. In many cases, insurance companies have to acknowledge receipt of the appeal within two weeks and approximately 30 days to return a decision.  Again, this information might be colored by state laws that might apply. I hope I was able to answer your question appropriately.
