My Doctor is Trying to fug me Over.

So, long story short, I saw this doctor a few in February because he was covered by my insurance. Realized right off the bat that he wasn't the doctor for me, seemed like a total quack. Skip ahead to today, I get a bill for these three doctor visits totaling 396$. I called them up and said this was a mistake because they should've billed my insurance. After about an hour on the phone, it turns out that the lady in charge of filing payments mixed up my info and the billing to my insurance never went through. Problem solved? Nah.. They want ME to pay for this ladies mistake. They even threatened to take me to court if I didn't pay and that's not even the worst part... These assholes have it setup to where the 396$ I owe increases by nearly 25% each month, until I pay.

 

What the fug?

At the end of the day you are responsible for the bill.  Pay them and then file it with your insurance because you can bet your ass your ins co isnt going to reimburse the penalty.

Problem is, I have insurance at the moment. Pisses me off that I'm at fault because some dumb blonde couldn't file my info correctly.

Welcome to adulthood.  Handle it calmly because freaking out won't help matters.  Even if it's their fault just be cool about it.  

This is the best solution.  If you already pissed off someone I would call again tomorrow and you will most likely get someone else.  I have found that if you are nice and dont accuse them of being stupid or point fingers most will submit a claim to be refiled with the insurance.  The person you are talking to is someone that works and probably does not make a ton of money so he/she should be able to understand that $400 dollars is a lot to ask someone to pay, especially when the reason they are paying is because of an insurance filing mix up.

 

I actually had something similar happen where my twins went in to get a flu shot.  One claim was paid and another was denied because someone changed the birth date and it did not match. I kept having it resubmitted for about 9 months and the office kept screwing up and actually turned it over to a collection agency (was recalled from collection but still...)at one point.  Finally talked to someone that realized how stupid it was and sorted it out within a day or so.

 

Good luck.

I'd never be mean to someone, even if it's their fault. That won't get me anywhere.

they're just jealous that can't hold that many eggs

They're going to be extra jealous when I don't pay for it. I couldn't possibly be in more debt...smh.

      Why does Bryce get the blame?

      By SmokinwithWilly · Posted

      I didn't move the goal posts. But anyone who follows football who wants to engage in a rational discussion can't argue that 10 7th round picks are equal to 10 1st rounders in value. The argument has always been we haven't spent as much on defense has we have on offense. Draft picks have value just like salary. We have not spent the same amount of draft pick salary cap on defense that we have on offense since drafting Bryce. It's not even close. Just the 2 1sts we used on Bryce, 2 overall 1sts have a value of 6000. That doesn’t even factor in DJ Moore or the 2 2nds. Bryce cost more than everything we've spent on defense in 6 damn years.

      The Case for(or Against) Drafting/Signing a TE

      By raleigh-panther · Posted

      Woukd be a great addition You know the issues from my prespective, 2 things the Panthers must do 1. Edge or pass rushers or 2 oline or 3 oline or as Andy Reid says, when in doubt, draft a lineman it is time   That oline is troubling plus a small person at QB  they   1. Can do a lot better than mayes at center, 2. and lewis has had injuries all season. 3. Moton should not have  been resigned long term, 4. corbett is a shadow and will probably be released  5 and Christianson coming off Achilles   6 and the kicker, would be Ickey’s contract if they decide to keep him INMO rookie and contracts will be needed to offset all that
