The patient made a payment for the October date of service for the 10% copay. The insurance applied the remaining 90% to the deductible, this is what the remaining billing was for that the patient just made the payment onAs for the viewing of the open bill on Apria’s payment site, the balances are updated with each new statement, not with each transaction. You can see real time that payments were made, but the site balance will update with the next statement. We show that a payment was scheduled and did process on 1/25/We apologize if the patient is still receiving calls about the balance, the agent did notate the account about the scheduled payment, this should have stopped the calls with in 24-hours We do apologize for the miscommunication as our goal is to ensure customer satisfaction as well as accurate billing.

Item # 1: Mr*** stated is requesting that Apria Healthcare fax documents to his *** *** Company in order for him to receive reimbursement RESPONSE: We have reviewed Mr*** account and confirmed that a representative from his *** *** Company contacted Apria
on August 3, They requested a copy of invoices for January through April in order to review for reimbursement for Mr***The information was faxed to them on August 3, as requestedWe do apologize for the miscommunication as our goal is to ensure customer satisfaction as well as accurate billing Sincerely, *** *** *** *** Billing Center Quality Specialist
The billing the patient received was in error. The invoices were in the process of being adjusted off of the account and a statement was generated. The adjustment on the account has been completed and there is a zero balance on the account. Since the equipment has been converted to sale and is the patient’s property, the only billing the patient would receive is for new equipment, supplies or services received The contract with *** was for months, we do apologize that you were informed with incorrect information. Since the insurance changed prior to meeting the contract, the contract would start over with the new insurance. However, due to the miscommunications and for customer service purposes, we have converted your equipment over to sale honoring the 12-month rental. Since Apria is honoring the 12-month rentals and then sale of the equipment, we will be refunding the patient for any over payments made over the months. This is the reason that you received the refund checks from Apria We do apologize for the miscommunication as our goal is to ensure customer satisfaction as well as accurate billing Sincerely, Apria Healthcare, LLC
