I am rejecting this response because:
RE: Complaint ID - ***Please find attached a copy of the receipt I received as payment of the invoice in question and also a copy of the EOB from my insurance companyI do not have a copy of the original invoice, I have moved three times since the service was carried out and it has been lost or discarded somewhere along the way. Please let me know if either attachment doesn't open or if additional information is neededI find it very odd that a company would purge their billing records less than years after the fact!Thank you for your assistance thus far,*** ***

Dear Ms***: It is the patient's responsibility to verify their benefits prior to having services performed Our staff is not responsible for contacting each patient's insurance plan to verify their coverage when they present an insurance card Our records indicate the
insurance applied her services to her deductible They were not denied as "out-of-network" Payment remains due. Sincerely, *** ***

I just wrote you a response to this complaint A pretty long response and now it isn't showing up If I have several inquiries open at once your system mixes them up Can you check to see where my response was filed under? Patient is *** *** Business UpdateDear Ms
***: Upon review I found *** *** had services on 6/24/which due to the specimen requirements, created two separate invoices. Invoice * *** for $and invoice # *** for $373.16.Both invoices were billed to *** for payment and denied because *** was not covered by *** on the date of service. Due to the denial both invoices were billed to ***. On 7/8/we received a payment of $from *** for invoice * *** in addition to updated insurance information. A refund was ordered and sent to *** on 7/16/and both invoices were closed and new invoices were created and billed to *** *** ***. Invoice # *** for $was $more than previously billed to *** due to our *** contract does not allow for a draw fee charge. We are not contracted with *** *** ***, therefore, the draw fee of $was included in the invoice to them. They responded on 8/18/applying $to the patients deductible and *** paid this amount on 12/21/creating a zero balance on this invoice. Invoice # *** for $was billed to *** *** *** and they responded on 10/15/Applying $to ***’s deductible. On 3/9/we provided an additional courtesy discount of $to the account, leaving the patient responsible for $40.00. At this time, $remains due.

Dear *** ***I pulled a copy of the physician's order and verified we performed all the testing *** *** physician ordered Any dispute over what was ordered would need to be discussed with the ordering physician The balance of $was applied to *** *** deductible and

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ***, and find that this resolution is satisfactory to me

Dear Ms***:Upon review, I found the patient's primary insurance *** responded to Quest electronically. In order for her secondary insurance, ***, to consider the claim for payment they need a hardcopy of the primary insurance carrier's Explanation of Benefits (EOB).
Unfortunately, we did not receive a hardcopy. Ms*** would need to send *** a copy of the hardcopy Explanation of Benefits she received from *** if she would like them to consider the remaining balance due.Sincerely,*** ***

Complaint: ***
I am rejecting this response because: Quest needs to rebill the insurance company as they stated, they need to credit me in total for the invoice and charges billed to meand rebill me when they get paid from my Insurance Company for my portion Not keep sending me bills and perhaps even ruining my credit for something I do not owe
Regards,
*** ***

We are appealing the insurance's denial with the insurance company and if the appeal is favorable, we will refund Ms***

Sincerely, Maegan M***

Dear *** ***I am unable to locate any testing performed on *** *** in December 2016.Sincerely,Maegan M***

I reviewed *** account and verified *** paid for his services in full under invoice # *** Please assure *** *** that invoice # *** has been adjusted to a zero balance and a refund of $was requested. Sincerely,Maegan M***

We billed the insurance with date of birth 10/4/which is the date of birth provided by the referring physician Has he contacted the insurance and spoke to them about their denial? This would be my recommendation There is nothing further we can do. Sincerely, Maegan M***
