This issue was brought to our attention on 9/4/and we immediately began working to get this resolved When we originally received the Explanation of Benefits from the patient's insurance company, [redacted] ***, they indicated a patient balance responsibility of $as part of the patient's co-insurance Therefore, accordingly, we moved that balance to reflect patient responsibility Shortly after 9/4/we called the patient's insurance company to verify if our claim had been processed correctly [redacted] advised that they had processed our claim incorrectly, placing $as patient responsibility which exceeded the case fee amount [redacted] is now reprocessing our claim per our request and we should receive a corrected Explanation of Benefits from them within the next 3-weeks In the meantime we regret that the patient received a call from us regarding a balance owed We have moved that balance out of patient responsibility so the patient will not receive any more calls We will wait for [redacted] to send out the corrected EOB at which time we will post to the patient's account We encourage the patient to contact their insurance company should this issue arise again Thank-you for the opportunity to serve Joe M [redacted] Manager Physiotherapy Associates - Customer Service Department

Complaint: [redacted] I am rejecting this response because: ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: < [redacted] > Date: Mon, Apr 21, at 11:AM Subject: Complaint ID: [redacted] To: [redacted] Hello, Thanks for your callI attached my response to "Reject Business Response." I was not able to respond via the web site, as it would not let me type in the text box Thank you! [redacted] -- PLEASE SEE ATTACHED
Complaint: [redacted] I am rejecting this response because:The business did not address the concerns in the original complaint as follows:1) Why their represent admitted that they have "had problems with our insurance."2) Why the therapist insisted my wife keep coming back, despite concerns raised regarding consulting with her doctor and the insurance coverage.3) Why the true cost of the therapy was never revealed Again, $for a one hour visit is ludicrous I have had physical therapy for multiple injuries and surgeries and never seen extorted like this.4) The business says they recently called Colorado Health OP and the patient has, "still not met their deductible." This is dubious as Colorado Health Op stopped offering health care end of year 2015, and we have not had them since NovemberAdditionally, the response brought up some interesting points:1) The business claimed they told my wife she was to make $good faith payments each visit This is not accurate She was not told this, only asked to sign a stack of papers and was also only asked to make such payments during actual visits 2) If the business "had problems with our insurance," they should have offered the reduced out-of-pocket option I was informed after the fact this was an optionSincerely, [redacted] ***
We have reviewed the account, please see the details of our analysis below Our patient, [redacted] *** has CO HealthOP as her only insuranceIt appears that her first visit (DOS 8/26/15) was processed Out of Network in error and has been appealedThe remaining visits were processed correctly In-Network and applied towards the patient’s deductibleI personally called CO HealthOP on March 28th and they sent the IE claim (DOS 8/26/15) back to reprocess under our correct TAX ID#The patient has still not met their deductible so she will be responsible for our fee schedule rates once it is finalized We have attached an account overview summary and a copy of all documents received from CO Health OP to date so you can verify All charges except the initial visit have been adjusted to reflect the accurate deductible amount per the Colorado HealthOP Explanation Of Benefits (EOB)The (hot/cold packs) charges show the patient responsible for $per our fee schedule and the insurance EOB for each visit where the service was rendered According to the forms reviewed and signed by the patient at her first visit, the patient was advised that she had not met any of her $6,deductible prior to treatmentThe agreement was that the patient would pay $"in good faith" per visit (signed on 8/26/and attached) until the exact patient responsibility was applied by CO Health OPThe patient made only two of these agreed payments (on 10/& 10/28/15)We received a $payment on 11/2/and a payment of $on 1/27/Mr Ivan recently made a $payment on 4/19/making the total patient payments to date equal $ The patient is being billed correctly and does owe the balance being billed to her for visits (DOS 9/1/– 11/13/15) which totals $1,The patient will also be responsible for the contracted allowed amount for her initial visit (DOS 8/26/15) once we received the reprocessed Explanation of Benefits from CO Health OP If you have any further questions, please let us know Thank you!

Complaint: ***
I am rejecting this response because: When I called MsN***, on November 28th, 2014, I told her that she had made some errors in the documentAlso, I told her calmly that we should meet to discuss the situation Additionally, I felt that one section of the report was attacking my character She told me that she was not going to change anything That is when I got irate on the telephone I told her to call me on the following monday, and if she didn't call me, then I would report herBefore I was given the assessment, MsN*** promised that she would complete a Social Security form for me, as long as I paid $to them Then after the assessment was over, I presented that document to her, and she refused to take itStating that they had a similar form which was not true In closing, if they don't want to make the changes to the report as well as complete my Social Security form, then I am demanding my $ to be returned immediately

Re: Revdex.com Case ID *** (*** ***)
We are in receipt of the complaint filed with the Revdex.com by *** about receiving bills for the services received
I have reviewed the documentation that was signed at the initial visit which confirms that the patient signed paperwork that indicates that her insurance had a large deductible***, indicates that she provided her health insurance to be billedSince she had a large deductible, the local office collected what they estimated her balance per visit to be at the time of serviceAll charges were submitted to her insurance company, and they processed claims leaving a balance of $which was applied to her annual deductible
The other concern that *** raises is the fact that she was not offered a “self pay” optionThe first reason that she was not offered Self Pay is that she presented her insurance cardSelf Pay is a discounted rate that we offer to patients who have no insurance coverageThe second is that we are obligated to bill health insurance when it is provided, so that those patients with large deductibles get credit for monies that they have paid for services
*** signed a Patient Payment agreement which indicates: I will be responsible for payment for servicesI understand that my good faith payment may not be inclusive of all payments for which I am responsible for and I may be billed for any remaining balance.”
At this time we feel the $balance owed by *** is a true and legitimate balance. This balance is currently with our Collections Agency due to the age of the balance

We are in receipt of the complaint filed with the Revdex.com by **[redacted] about receiving bills for the services received
I have reviewed the documentation that was signed at the initial visit which confirms that the patient signed paperwork that indicates that her insurance had a large deductiblePer **[redacted], she alleges that she and the therapist "worked out a deal" for $per visit to be payment in fullPer a full account review, **[redacted] actually paid $per visit, and all charges were submitted to her insurance company
What appears to have happened is that both offices collected a $Good Faith Estimate from the patient, billed the insurance, and at this time **[redacted] is being billed for the difference remaining after insurance processed her claims
**[redacted] signed a Patient Payment agreement which indicates: I will be responsible for payment for servicesI understand that my good faith payment may not be inclusive of all payments for which I am responsible for and I may be billed for any remaining balance."
At this time we feel the $balance owed by **[redacted] is a true and legitimate balance. This balance is currently with our Collections Agency due to the age of the balance

This company assured me they were participating in my insurance but they do not. They are out of network in Virginia, where I live and work and where I had my physical therapy, but are in network in MARYLAND. I paid my copay each time I went and it wasn't until AFTER I stopped treatment there, that they sent me a bill for over five hundred dollars. If they had told me at any time that they were not participating with my insurance, I would have stopped the visits immediately. But they lied to me, then didn't bill me until after my treatments were over. I was duped. They refused to negotiate. I want to warn others to about this greedy and crooked company.

Complaint: [redacted]
I am rejecting this response because:
My insurance, Medicare, told me that they sent the final documents to you on May 14th, and that you should have the information that you have requested. That was 11 working days ago. I called your company yesterday, and was told because of the holiday, any paperwork will be delayed, and that you are very busy, and that her records indicated that nothing had been received yet from Medicare. I was told that you are waiting on insurance, and insurance has said that you should have all responses requested. I would like to be able to use that same excuse if the roles were reversed. Instead, I would most likely be sent to collections. I was also wondering when I would receive any detailed billing? In this age of electronic input, it is sad and frustrating that these things are allowed/accepted to take so long.
Thank you for your time.

This company's office in West Chester, OH misled me on their capability to treat my condition. After 6 weeks,of treatments, I was told by the therapist he was not trained to treat me. His own records states ( but he did not ) that he referred me the a Physical Therapist Specialist, which I was led to believe he was. When I complained to the companies headquarters in PA, I was threatened by their legal department to have no further contact with them or the local office where I received treatment.
A review of **. [redacted] file was completed and there is no mention anywhere of a "deal". **. [redacted] called the local facility on March 31, 2014 and discussed her account. She was advised that the $50 she paid was a good faith estimate and not a self/prompt pay rate. **. [redacted] disagreed and she was advised that the paperwork she signed indicated the same. **. [redacted] was frustrated but indicated that she would pay the balance.
Also, note that the [redacted] (**. [redacted] spoke of) was not employed with our company until January 2014. **. [redacted] treatment ended in May of 2013.

Re: Revdex.com Case ID [redacted] ([redacted])
We are in receipt of the
complaint filed with the Revdex.com by **. [redacted]. When verifying benefits, the local office was
advised that the patient had a $147 deductible and that his plan processes
claims at 80% insurance responsibility and 20% patient responsibility. They in
turn advised the same to [redacted].
Subsequently, the claims were
processed by the primary and secondary insurance with $167.10 being the patient
liability. We did receive a payment of $147.00, and at this time, the final
balance due is $20.10.
[redacted] signed a
Patient Payment agreement which indicates: I will be responsible for payment
for services. I understand that my good faith payment may not be inclusive of
all payments for which I am responsible for and I may be billed for any
remaining balance.”
At this time we feel the $20.10
balance owed by [redacted] is a true and legitimate
balance.
