Denied! is a feature documentary investigating how America’s healthcare system systematically weaponizes prior authorization, claim denials, and AI driven review systems to delay or deny medically necessary care. Told through a mix of personal stories, legal battles, expert analysis, and unprecedented access to active litigation, Denied! exposes how denial has quietly become one of the most profitable sectors in modern healthcare.
Produced by the award-winning team behind Outcast Nation (PBS, 2025), the film reveals the human cost of a system designed to say “no” and the growing movement fighting to dismantle it.
