Dear Revdex.com of Hawaii, I am following up on complaint #[redacted]. On March 13, 2017 I made a complaint against Kaiser Permanente for quoting me a price for a service, then overcharging me for that service despite verbal confirmation from [redacted], RN at the time of service that the amount I was stating was due, was the correct amount that she quoted me. [redacted], RN works for KP in their “Breast Care Team” on Oahu to help patients understand their bill before scheduling services. I had a conversation with [redacted], RN prior to making my mammogram appt. She told me that the SCREENING mammogram would result in no deductible to be met on my plan as it was a ‘fully covered benefit’ and was not subject to any deductible. She was well aware of my plan, my member number, and that I was a new patient and had not accrued any money whatsoever towards my deductible. We spoke at length about how much was my responsibility at the time of service and she told me that ‘deductibles’ would be due in the amount of $237 for the Ultrasound and $210 for the diagnostic. I was told there would be ‘no deductible due’ for the screening mammogram as it was a ‘totally covered benefit’. AFTER my services, I was told my ‘deductible’ would be $237 for the Ultrasound and $348 for the diagnostic. (No mention of a deductible being due for the screening mammogram was mentioned at the time of service.) I said I was told by [redacted], RN in the Breast Care Team dept. that my ‘deductible’ would be $237 for the Ultrasound and $210 for the diagnostic. [redacted], RN said she was not aware of such a high deductible of $237 for the diagnostic. This conversation between the receptionist and [redacted], RN was in my presence where I could overhear their conversation. [redacted], RN confirmed the numbers I was stating to the receptionist. The receptionist told [redacted], RN that ‘there had been a recent price increase’ and ‘did she not get it’. Celeste said that as of ‘today’ (3/13/17) she was still quoting the $210 as the correct ‘deductible’ amount. Receptionist finished the conversation with [redacted], RN and said I was responsible for the $348 despite confirmation by [redacted], RN that $210 was her quote to me prior to scheduling the appt. I then asked to speak with a manager of the clinic and he repeated that it was still my responsibility to pay the higher rate despite being quoted a much lower rate. Again, at the time of service, only these two charges were discussed. Thus, I paid $447 on my charge card that covered the full quote from [redacted], RN. On 4/24/17 I received a bill from KP. There was a line item for TWO radiology services and no line item on the bill for the ultrasound. No line item for the Ultrasound bill nor my payment of $237 towards that Ultrasound bill. On top of my diagnostic mammogram, there was a bill for the SCREENING mammogram for $585.48 with $181.50 ‘deductible’ due. Once again, my previous conversation with [redacted], RN in the Breast Care Team dept. that my ‘deductible’ would be $237 for the Ultrasound and $210 for the diagnostic for a total of only $447 due for services I was requesting. After two different conversations with Patient Financial Services, I understood that they still hold me responsible for the $181.50 despite [redacted], RN informing me PRIOR to scheduling the appt that my plan coverage would take care of the screening service ‘in full’ with ‘no deductible’. Now, on 3/25/17 I have received a letter from the grievance dept of Kaiser Permanente, signed by James G. A[redacted], that I was “granted a waiver for the $138” and that it would take ‘6-8 weeks to process’. This was the resolution letter to my complaint #[redacted]. It has been 11 weeks and no credit has been ever credited to my account as promised in letter dated 3/25/17 I received from the grievance dept of Kaiser Permanente, signed by James ** A[redacted]. I have had two very long conversations with Patient Financial Services (one on 4/24/17 and one today 6/8/17) because I am still being billed for the $138 ‘waived’ amount. And also being billed $181.50 for the screening mammogram. On 4/24/17 Jamie in Patient Financial Services dept sent in a request to the grievance dept for confirmation of the waived $138. She has not received a response from that department, and it has been 6 weeks since her request. I then spoke with Mel in Patient Financial Services today 6/8/17, then got escalated to speaking with her ‘lead’ Aloha in Patient Financial Services. Neither of them were able to reach the grievance department on the phone today. I am writing a complaint to the Revdex.com because my complaint # [redacted] has NOT been resolved and since then, another bill has popped up beyond my quote from their breast department employee [redacted], RN. No other industry can treat people so poorly as the health care industry. Official documents from KP ask their members to “Know Before you Go” and “Get a Cost Estimate” before scheduling your appt. I did this as requested as I was planning an ELECTIVE procedure. I was directed to [redacted], RN in the Breast Care Team department and we spoke at length. She spent detailed time understanding my plan and gave me a quote of $447 for the services I was requesting: A screening mammogram on my Right breast, and a diagnostic mammogram for my Left breast, and an ultrasound for my left breast. I ask, how can one department of KP give me a quote, confirm that quote with a receptionist in a different department, then 6 weeks later send a bill for a third deductible due when the third charge was never mentioned at the time of service, nor ever mentioned during my “Know Before you Go” lengthy conversation with [redacted], RN? With premiums soaring, and services plummeting, members deserve ACCURATE quotes prior to service. If quotes are made, they should be honored. I am asking that my original complaint # [redacted] be honored and fulfilled and that the second unmentioned deductible of $181.50 also be waived. No other industry would stay in business treating their members so poorly!Desired Outcome: I am asking that my original complaint # [redacted] be honored and fulfilled and that the second unmentioned deductible of $181.50 also be waived.

Received word from the District Manager that gift cards were mailed to me today to resolve the issue.

We trusted The Body Shop in Sparks, NV to repair our vehicle and/or total our vehicle. The Body Shop has held our vehicle for approximately eight months and it is still not repaired, nor has our money been refunded. We do not have a loner vehicle, and the vehicle is sitting outside in the weather incurring further wear. Over two months ago, The Body Shop said they were unable to get parts (they were apparently using used parts in place of new parts that they took extra time to wait for), and they said the vehicle frame was bent beyond repair. At this time, the vehicle should have been immediately totaled and insurance companies contacted by The Body Shop. We have requested (in person and by phone) the insurance checks so we can purchase a new vehicle. Our calls have not been returned, and the owner tried to verbally refund only part of the insurance money (there are three checks involved) as well as offer to have someone purchase our vehicle for a quarter of what it is worth. Our insurance money should not have been spent by The Body Shop.We demand an immediate, complete refund our our insurance money to purchase a new vehicle.Product_Or_Service: Vehicle Body RepairDesired SettlementWe demand an immediate, complete refund our our insurance money to purchase a new vehicle.

The team at The Body Shop are courteous, knowledgeable, respectful and accomplish the job in a timely matter. They know their business well and I would recommend them to anyone who has been in an incident. Their customer service is above reproach and their empathy shows customer concern.

Getting into an auto accident usually is a stressful situation. Our family had two separate accidents within two days. The Body Shop did an amazing job of keeping the entire ordeal stress free. They did an amazing job on our cars....you can't even tell that they were in accidents!! The service was great and the results were even better. I would definitely recommend this shop to all of my family and friends.
