Went to this place to fulfil a durable medical goods order because they accepted my insurance(***), they purchased my products from another company( I'm assuming) because now a company called *** has billed me nearly $1500 for the medical equipment I received. My equipment is being rented, not purchased at $60 per month so why am I being billed for equipment I'm renting?? Cannot get a local person, I get a call enter for roberts medical when I call.

My mom had a infected knee replacement and had to had a spacer put in her knee in return had to keep one of knee straight out and could not bend. We needed a hospital bed for her due to her bedroom is upstairs. It has been 3 weeks trying to get her a bed through ***. We have gave them 2 doctors prescriptions stating what they need to provide her a bed (including all medical records and insurance information). Also, the doctors office has called and faxed several times the information needed and still cant get a hospital bed. I have stopped by the *** office on May 8th, 2020, and dropped off another prescription from the doctor stating that she needed a full electric bed, the employee stated that she would put in the request as a urgent matter and that it would be only a couple of days before we would have a bed. I called on May 13th, day after I visited the office and still they said they did not have the right information. this is after the doctors office called and faxed all the information they needed. I know this is a difficult time but when people need their service, they need to provide a better customer service.

My doctor prescribed a new CPAP machine for me about a month ago, because mine was broken, and I was using an old one as a back up machine. Initially, back in February, I had called *** about troubleshooting my old machine. They would not call me back. When I finally reached someone, they were not willing to come look at the machine, or let me bring it in to the facility to be looked at. The small amount of advice they gave was completely unhelpful, and so my old machine essentially had to be considered broken. I had gone into *** Home Medical before my Dr's appt and told them the prescription would be coming in that day, and that I would need the machine to be in as quickly as possible, as the old machine was barely working. About 5 days after the prescription was sent, hearing nothing, I called ***. They said they didn't have a diagnosis code, so I called the Dr's office to get them to send the code. The office said they both faxed *** the code, and sent it hard copy by runner to the *** facility. After another few days, I got a message from *** that after 5-10 days, my machine would be in. When I heard nothing in a couple more weeks, I called ***, and was told they didn't have the diagnosis codes, and was asked for the phone number to the Dr's office. Then I was transferred to "***", who was handling my case. She said they didn't have my prescription, or the diagnosis codes. I told her the office re-faxed the prescription and codes, AND sent it hard copy by runner to the *** facility. She said there was nothing she could do but re-fax them again, that it wasn't her fault the office hadn't contacted them, and was completely unconcerned with the fact that I have been without an adequate CPAP for over a month. I have been with *** for over 10 years, but if this problem isn't fixed, I will take my business elsewhere. There is no excuse for them to lose my prescription and codes twice, and to have no record on file.

Roberts Home Medical Response • Jun 07, 2018

The patient called our office on 2/16/18 and spoke with CSR ***. The patient stated that their Airsense unit’s “air pressure has dropped drastically.” They were unsure of their model, since they were not near their unit at the time. *** logged a ticket with our troubleshooting team on Friday 2/16 at 11:07am. The troubleshooting tech, ***, reached out to the patient on Monday 2/19 at 2:06pm and left a voicemail with suggestions to help the unit’s issues (Ticket # ***). *** then called the patient back again on Wednesday 2/21 at 11:19am and left another voicemail (Ticket # ***). There are no other notes that the patient contacted us after those voicemails were left.The next note is a confirmation of a new start PAP order being received on 5/1/18 from the referral. The note states that the order was received, however, the diagnosis code was missing from the Rx in the order. We sent the auto-call for receiving the order on 5/3, to make the patient aware that we have received the order. The order was released to processing on 5/10, after the updated Rx was received (file in patient’s documents). The processing CSR *** processed the order the same day it was released (5/10) and the order was sent to the scheduling team. The order was scheduled by the scheduling CSR Carl W on 5/11 for an in-store setup on 5/14. The patient was setup at the *** location on 5/14. In regards to the patient’s request for “no charges for or related to this CPAP machine because of this severe inconvenience” as stated in the desired settlement, we are unable to waive any charges due to the patient’s copay and/or deductible based on the patient’s insurance guidelines. The initial copay of $47.40 and the monthly copay of $7.91 must be charged and collected by our company, in order to stay in compliance with the insurance contracted requirements. It is noted that the patient also has a deductible remaining on their plan, which might have some of the charges roll to the deductible and require the patient to pay those as well. Those charges, copays and deductible, are dictated by the patient’s insurance and we are required to collect the charges based on the contract we have with the insurances.Thank You

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