Probable bogus payment/Awful customer support/Individual records being dropped

This physicians office blatently charged my insurance for providers which were never made on the specific day of support. This workplace has twice charged me for three hours of neurological assessments done on my small child equally for times of support 2/24 and 3/22, which is really a day that OUR SON WAS NOT EXAMINED AND WASN'T EVEN EXISTING, and college documents back this up. The particular appt under consideration was for that physician and myself to-go over check results for assessments given about the PRIOR 2/24 day of support. Obviously, my insurance refused the identical state therefore the physicians office tried to follow me for that statement. After I approached the payment division (Ben) on 6/5, he basically called me a liar, loud talked, berated and talked over me, flat out refusing to answer ANY of my questions as to why I was being billed for services that were not performed on 3/22. After I attempted to describe to him which was boy couldn't have perhaps been examined ANOTHER period and wasn't actually provide that evening, his response was ostensibly OH WELL THAT'S NOT MY ISSUE, THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT A DOCTOR PLACE IN THE CHART AND YOU'RE ACCOUNTABLE FOR IT!!! Next phone finished, I talked my grievances via every method possible... The NC Attorney Generals Office, the NC Department of Insurance Fraud Department, all the regional information channels I really could discover and my Facebook site. At 8:13 am on 6/6 I left a voicemail for the doctor herself advising her of my experience with Tom, reminding her that my son was NOT present at the appointment the day they are fraudulently billing me for testing and giving her an opportunity to rectify the situation before it went any furthatr. She instantly called me again at 9:19 am and rapidly recommended me-she might write-off the expenses if which was to my fulfillment and might deliver me paperwork supporting this, then hurried me off the telephone. Hrs later at 2:11 pm she quit me a voicemail that she'd spoken to BEN and at this time they transformed their thoughts about writing off the expenses and that I will have to examine the problem with him (I saved this voicemail). Soon after that at 2:57 pm, I obtained an angry phone from BEN declaring he paid attention to my "tirade" about the physicians voicemail and he's conscious of all my Facebook articles about their company and he's approached their lawyer and INSTANTLY hungup. I instantly named him back and requested him why did he contact me simply to hang-up on me and just why has this increased until now. Their justification was that I was angry whenever we originally talked concerning the payment and that I, and I estimate, "supported him right into a corner and that is how he reacts if he seems supported right into a part".??!! I told him if asking him about being charged for providers which were never made is what he views "supporting him right into a part", then thats undesirable and thus may be the way he replied to my concerns. I recommended him obviously I'm angry since everytime I attempt to know what/after I was charged for, he increases his speech and discussions over me never permitting me to complete. Therefore he attempts to clarify again the statement was for three hours of screening completed on my boy on 3/22. After I eventually got him to hear the truth that my boy wasn't there and that I had evidence which the physician understands this, then he transformed his tale around and stated the cost was for them rating my kids check results that day. Again, I noticed that after I came, his workplace SOMEHOW had lost the check results they had PREVIOUSLY FORMERLY OBTAINED BEFORE THE APPT on 3/22 in certain arbitrary file (they never discovered that document) which I'd to hold back one more time within the reception as the man scrambled to re-rating the check results so the physician and that I might ultimately review them... Which I'm particular the physician recalls the problem since she was extremely apologetic about dropping the outcomes, she simply did not understand how that occurred, and he or she can get them to Re do the ratings rapidly cause she understands I've to generate one hour to function... Etc etc... As well as lay within the reception with me for around 30 mins keeping me business. After I eventually DID get into her workplace to-go over his check outcomes, I had been there for around one hour so when we were completed she recommended she'd gather an entire statement and might send to myself and my boyis college to assist together with his IEP analysis. Again, NO ASSESSMENTS were completed and just why are at this point you declaring I had been billed for re-rating since your workplace dropped the initial examination ratings??!! He simply served amazed to listen to I never got the physicians statement and they had DROPPED his ratings within the first-place, but stated he'd examine what precise providers were made on 3/22 and what occurred when he is able to get wih the physician. Nicely about half an hour next conversaion, I acquired a phone from NC Atty Style workplace who agreed to contact him on three-way to try to acquire some of my issues resolved before she went forward with really having me record a criticism. While she requested BEN to describe particularly exactly what the statement for 3/22 was for, he AGAIN transformed his tale and stated that the statement was for three hours the physician used composing the check outcome statement (a study I've yet to obtain and its own been a few months). Therefore, which makes THREE various answers/good reasons for exactly what the costs are for on ONE OF the times of support 3/22... And insurance is not spending. And so I questioned him to verify he has become stating the $510 expenses was for three hours record publishing the physician charged on that evening, he explained proper at $170 one hour. I inquired if he was referring to the statement they never delivered me? He responded nicely yes but he's focusing on receiving me that statement. And so I requested has got the statement actually been already completed? Well he could not appear to find it within the document and he'snot had occasion to talk towards the physician, etc etc. I responded by informing him today he must realize why I'm angry, since you inform me various tales everytime we speak, you shed my kids individual health documents which have yet found, and also you cannot actually provide me a definite solution of what I'm being charged for. I recommended the repetition in the Atty Style workplace that I am hoping that Ben and also the Epilepsy Start requires every action to correct this and that I can give them until Friday 6/8 to contact me back before I move forward with processing a criticism. Curiously enough, after I got home today, I ripped out my itemized claims for several three days of support, and sure enough it obviously notices that on two individual days of service (2/24 & 3/22), I had been charged for NEUROPHYS CHECK BATTERY, such as the day under consideration that my boy wasn't existing which he's transformed his tale on 3 times. This itemized record arrived straight in the physicians office themselves and it is a definite indicator that anything is wrong below which might obviously be described as a reason for fake insurance payment.

Our suggestion would be to stay away from this institution if you don't desire to be handled just like a deadbeat if God Restrict your insurance declines a state, watching out for identical payment for assessments which were never given in your kid on that one day of support
