My wife and I had immunizations on 11/30/2023 for the Flu, Shingles and ******19 booster. We have insurance, are over 50 and the services should have been completely covered. Centura is refusing to accept United Health Care's coverage of the ******19 booster even though our insurance United Health Care has confirmed our balance should be $0 as they covered the services. We have received a bill for $424 and now a follow-up for being overdue while we are trying to resolve this.We have spent hours on the phone over the past several months with both Centura and United Health Care. One of the representatives of United Health Care (Keesa) called Centura on 1/25/24 to explain the services were covered and we no longer have any financial obligation for the services.*******'s hospital website even advertises that the ******19 immunizations are free, yet we are being charged even with insurance. We are attaching the Centura statement, a screenshot of the hospital's advertising of no cost ******19 immunizations. and United Health Care's statement of benefits.We would like the charge removed.Business response

I am rejecting this response because:
We received assurance from the CommonSpirit ************** billing department the bill would not be considered past due during the time we are disputing this claim. Immediately afterwards we received a past due email for this disputed charge. I am not confident that during this process the hospital will not attempt to send this to collections during their stated ***** day review process. We've been trying to resolve this for 3 months. We are requesting that Centura Health escalate and expedite this claim.
Sincerely,

Centura set me up on a payment plan, which I been paying since 2021. , all payments were made each month and I paid all new charges separately. so the balance did not increase. My statement on 11/8/23, clearly showed I was on a payment plan, a payment was made on 11/8/23 for $316.82 and a payment was made on 12/8/23 for $130.02. I was never informed via writing, email or phone that I was being sent to collections, nor was I past due for any payments at the time that I was sent to collections. I called on 1/15/24 because I had received a call about $90.02, which I thought was strange because I knew I owed more than that. That prompted me to call Centura to find out what going on. I talked to ******, who tried to help me and was very pleasant, no issues with ****** but I asked for a supervisor and was given ***** who bordered on condescending and refused to do anything but say he was "investigating", he could see the payment plan information and payments, he did not even try to help. I asked for his manager and he put some girl on named *** who was simply rude, claiming they would call back in ***** hours. They did nothing. ******* has clearly made a mistake in sending me to collections and their representatives refused any help or service.Business response

In late December 2023, the heat exchange system at *********************************** encountered issues amid a cold front, with complete failure occurring on January 8th, 2024. Subsequently, over the following four weeks, multiple vendors worked on-site to devise a repair solution. By February 5th, 2024, a permanent repair plan was established, entailing the manufacturing of a new heat exchanger with a ***** week lead time. In the interim, from February 9th onwards, 63 portable heating units were installed throughout the building to mitigate discomfort, although some tenants opted to turn them off due to noise. Despite this, the units improved the temperature within the spaces. On February 28th, 2024, the portable units were removed, and an ***************** solution was implemented, achieving a heating capacity of 95%. Delays in this process were attributed to the intricacy of the work and solution. This interim solution is expected to suffice until the arrival of the new heat exchanger. While we anticipate completion by May 31, 2024, we remain cautious due to potential unforeseen circumstances.Customer response

ive had complications for most of the pregnancy. on feb 7 i had an *************** showed my baby to be 8 lbs, big baby! on feb 24th i had a dr **** and my obgyn felt at that time i had alot of fluid & wanted to run test to make sure baby was ok. obgyn ran test didnt get desired results immediately made me sign forms for c section and tubiligation then i was sent to l&d for more test which shouldve been 30 min to 1hr then sent home if passed if not baby should come out that night or next morning. baby failed test for 6 hours and they refused to take him out. a nurse even said cmon baby breathe and still they refused to take baby out to truly discover problem. instead they filled my already ****** fluid and swollen body with more fluid. baby was born in distress not correctly breathing and full of fluid. baby goes to nicu and mistreatment continues. I have already spoken to the director about this and was asked what I would like which is for this to never happen again after me, but I didnt think the nicu was going to cause more issues for me after our discussion especially after the social workers advised me that they want me to feel at ease and good about the baby having to stay in the nicu. Taking away my spouses rights to see our son and I just had a c-section and my tubes tied I need all the support I can get. I now cant even focus on my recovery being the only one allowed here. Ive never felt so sad in my life. Having a baby put in the nicu there is 0 compassion at ****************** Hospital in **********, **. They are feeding my son 2.5oz every 3 hrs its been 3 weeks and they still wont release him theres nothing wrong with him from what the doctors have told me. Please look into how this Nicu is ran.
