For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.The account was sent to collections after notifying us weeks priorAll bills had been paid up to date and then it was found that there was a charge from years past that came on one statement and was then sent to collectionsTo say the account was past due over a certain amount of time is correct but without letting the patient know is completely unacceptableAnd yes we paid that in fullWe were paying for a piece of equipment that wasn't neededThis whole bill was over a piece of equipment that was never neededAnd when asked to come pick up the product, Apria was given three phone numbers to reach us to get in contact with usSaying the customer was not complaint is falseThe reasons for this, he was getting tests done to show he needed a CPAP machine, which included but were not limited to, sleep tests, and doctor's prescriptionHe wasn't approved for the oxygen machine because he never needed or used the oxygen machine and this piece of equipment was what the charges had stemmed fromThe CPAP machine and associated charges are not the charges in questionIt was for an oxygen machine that was given for surgery and then was never picked upEVEN AFTER WE OFFERED TO DROP OFF OURSELVES AT THE *** STOREApria not only had numbers to contact us with, but failed to call even after getting another person in management involvedThe very next day Apria failed to contact us to pick up a machineThere were phone calls to Apria's billing about being sent to collections after only being notified weeks prior about overdue charges that were not present in the statement priorYou're billing department failed and we suffered for itYou're delivery/pick up company failed and we suffered for itNo one even came to change the filters or face masks or tubes and these are things that patients are using for their lungs and breathing, and if you had come and changed out what was supposed to be, you could have taken the machineAnd yes, we called for the tubing and masks as well.

Company has not satisfied my need for CPAP (they mistakenly write 'Pap' as in 'Pap Smear') supplies A man saying he was from Respondent Company phoned me on 11/10/and said he would send the CPAP machine white paper filters I require and that the charge would be $ I received a parcel containing filters which are many times too small and DO NOT FIT my CPAP machine Respondent company is now demanding that I pay the $ I refuse to pay it and I am also not going to pay to return the wrong-sized filters The filters reached me in the following manner The man who called me says he works for Apria, gave his phone number as 877-265-ext***, and his name sounds like *** *** or *** ***--hard to say, because he mumbles He did not give me a chance to check the stock number for the filters, and refused to hold the line to let me look Later, I checked my CPAP supply box and found wrappers giving the following info: the correct filters are Tiara Medical noTCF-I called *** a week ago and reported this He has not bothered to call back I also got a phone call from some woman calling herself "*** *** ***" and saying she was calling from the same phone number, ext.*** I called her last week too, after the wrong filters arrived, and I left a message, and she too has not bothered to call back I am also dissatisfied because Respondent Company has not shown me any evidence in writing that it will stop having its bill collector continue to dun me for payment I already made for a CPAP mask and hose many months ago During November, 2014, the Respondent Company has had a bill collector fraudulently contact me about that alleged debt To me, Respondent Company will not have resolved this complaint until and unless it assures me IN WRITING that I owe NOTHING.To me, it looks obvious from Respondent Company's response to the Revdex.com that they do not take this matter at all seriously -- they just do not give a *** about this one customer's complaint I am therefore contacting the federal Medicare system with this complaint, since Medicare regulates medical supply companies Moreover, if this matter is not resolved by Dec15, 2014, I will make further efforts to get the attention of this monster corporation by suing it in local court They have to resolve this, and I will not shut up until they do

Apria did reach out to me. They asked me to provide copies of all checks (front and back) for the payments made so they could "research" the account. My payments are made through my employer's healthcare flex-spending account administrator, MyHealthEquity. Payment are sent via "VPay" (an example"VPay" attached for our reference) not by check. Clearly, Apria hasn't looked into this account issue very well! I sent this example to Apria stating that their billing center needs do the research to find these payments and learn how to apply them. I don't believe it's my responsibility to improve the internal processes at Apria's billing center! Also, they haven't given me ANY indication that the payments won't continue to be lost in their billing center moving forward. I've asked Apria to figure it out and email me with the new processes they have in place to prevent the ongoing lost payments. If Apria is able to give me some assurance they've got processes in place, then I will accept their response

We have reviewed patient’s account and have removed the outstanding balance from collections and patient is no longer responsible for those charges We have also requested that the collections agency have all information removed from all credit agencies if necessary and a letter sent to
patient as confirmation that it has been taken care of. At this time the account reflects a zero balance with no outstanding claims pending with the insurance

I am being billed 100% of my CPAP machine rental and supplies for my 1st month (June 2016) on therapy because Apria HealthCare incorrectly billed my insurance company AND failed to obtain a Prior Authorization for my CPAP machine rental until 7/22/I spoke with ** ***/*** ***, who contacted Apria and they were informed that Apria was incorrectly submitting the claims and they hadn't received a Prior Authorization for my CPAP machine until 7/22/and therefore, they wouldn't cover my CPAP machine and supplies prior to 7/6/The insurance information was CORRECT and hasn't changed...Apria just didn't properly submit the claims and now they are charging me 100% of the rental cost for the CPAP machine and supplies for the month of June 2016.Desired Outcome: Adjust my bill to reflect that I will only pay 15% co-insurance instead of 100% of bill due to the fact that the error was on the part of Apria HealthCare for the month of June 2016, which was the total amount paid on June 1, and not the that was billed and paid on 7/27/
