- Customer Service Issues
- Status:
- Answered
This facility is supposed to be in the business of helping people overcome addiction. My son was was admitted and the discharged 3 days later because they could not verify insurance coverage. After I explained to them that I verified online that he had coverage AND being told I had until the next business day which was a Monday to get proof of verification, he was released anyway. After many phone calls and lots of frustration it was found out that the facility was calling the wrong insurance. Now they have quit answering my calls or texts. My son does not want to go back there at this point. They need to acknowledge their mistake and make things right. What if this happened to someone else and then because that person did not get the help they needed they overdosed. This is unacceptable.Business response
