      They have not paid a claim from 2/26/24. Called insurance company 2 times. They are saying that it was out of network and to file a grievance form which I did on 2/15/2025. I have the approval letter for this claim stating it is in network. They have even acknowledged they have this letter. In network deductible was met for year 2024 putting responsibility on insurance company to pay ******** respiratory $323.52 for this claim.

      The authorization submitted doesn't have all the required information to be valid. In order to be valid the following is required which can be located on the previous letter sent.

      The information provided in the authorization you supplied is not sufficient.  To ensure an authorization from a member is valid the following information is required. 
       
                The members name, ID number, date of birth, and full address (must have 3 of these components)
                The full name of the person the member chose to act on their behalf

                A description of the specific information we can share
                The date the authorization expires (not to exceed one year). Simply stating at the conclusion of the appeal process is sufficient.
                A statement that the member understands that they have the right to withdraw the authorization at any time in writing
                A statement that the member understands we arent responsible if their authorized representative shares their PHI with others
                A statement that the member understands they are not required to provide authorization in order to receive treatment or payment, or for enrollment or being eligible for benefits

      I have reviewed the business' response and am rejecting it because:

      What they are saying is that has been applied to the deductible, but the wrong deductible. It is filed as out of network, but should be filed in network. We spoke with a **** P from **** and it seems to have been applied to IL as apposed to MO. They are supposed to be fixing it currently but is taking some time to do so.

      In December I had to sign up with this company during enrollment. Since then it has been a nightmare for just getting anything done. They have not given me my card for the over the counter meds, which they claim they have sent in an unmarked envelope, they would send a second but I have not seen anything come in yet. When I talk to them about a primary care doctor, which they demand I have, but I cannot even get in contact with him. They wont give me a street address, and that its in the ***** block of south grand, but they aren&#**;t specific. Because of that I cannot fill out any forms, which they want me to. They gave me this number for "livanta" for filing a complaint regarding the medication aspect and they do not call back. I keep getting run arounds, vague answers, and just overall not helping me at all. I tried calling them a second time and it says they are not taking calls now (this was given to me by ********).

      I am in receipt of your Audit Notice dated March 27, 2024 and I am appalled by the entirety of your demand. You accuse me of fraudulently seeking payment for prescription medications after expiration of my Anthem policy. In reality, however, I updated the pharmacy with my new insurance information. If they failed to bill the proper insurance company, that is both unknow to me and outside of my control.Further, and more significantly, your company apparently approved payment for prescription medications after my policy expired. That decision is wholly on Anthem, a voluntary choice to pay when there existed no duty to do so. I was completely unaware that Anthem was billed, and similarly unaware that Anthem chose to pay the pharmacy. For your to now suggest that I have done something fraudulent is slanderous, and the fact that you retained a collections agency before notifying me of a perceived problem is clearly bad faith. You have demanded that I reimburse Anthem more than $700, yet you fail to provide any proof that you paid anything to the pharmacy, much less the amount paid. As my medication can be purchased for far less than $700 without insurance, I again question the efficacy of your demand.Please have someone phone me to discuss this. My business card is attached.I am simultaneously sending a copy of this letter to the Better Business Bureau and may later copy the Attorney General for the State of Missouri. If payment of some form is owed, I am happy to discuss it, but I will not be harassed when the error is clearly on Anthem.

      (I have a Speech Disability, I prefer email instead of talking on the phone)Complaint is not a health concern, it has to do with "Health Blue" that is part of ** Medicaid.About 1 to 2 months ago, I was supposed to receive a $10 reward (within the ***** minutes) for receiving a **19 vaccine (self-report). Couple days later, I have not receive the reward.I wanted to contact the **************** about it, I saw on the website that it gave 3 options. Option 1 was phone, option 2 was online chat, and option 3 was secure email.I chosen options 2 and 3 because of my speech disability.I did online chat and told them the issue, they refuse to look into it.I did the secure email and told them the same thing, they refuse to look into it.I then started the online grievance procedure.I explained whats going on and made sure to let them know about my speech disability.Do you know what happened next?After a while, they closed my complaint. For some reason that they thought my complaint was about the Flu Vaccine instead of the **19 Vaccine reward.Not once that they reach out to me via email about the **19 Vaccine that I never received.I just now in real time check the status of the reward, it is still missing.

      RE: Threat of cancellation of life Insurance Policy

      • • 1_. D 2023' ·-

      _,

      r -:- J 202f

      On September 23, 2023 I received a letter from ****** Life informing me that my life insurance payment of $13.20 was late. The letter stated that payment was due on July 1. I NEVER RECEIVED A BILL FOR MY LIFE INSURANCE PRIOR TO RECEIVING MY NOTICE TWO

      AND A HALF MONTHS LATER. At least four other retirees from ********* High School experienced this same problem with billing from ****** Life. While I am no expert on business and billing matters, it seems to me that ****** Life would send out a bill PRIOR to the payment date. In addition, there was no "due by" date on the letter for my "late" payment to be received.

      I quickly called the telephone number on the front of the letterhead only to find out that the number was no longer in service. On the letterhead! An incorrect telephone number! I finally found another telephone number for the company and called. They could not help me, but gave me another number. After a considerable time on hold, I was connected to a representative that took my payment information over the phone. I have enclosed a copy of my phone log AND a letter from your company thanking me for my payment. As I am confident that most telephone conversations are recorded, please refer to that recording on September 26 at 11:17 a.m. for 24 minutes.

      Imagine my surprise when I received a letter from ****** Life yesterday threatening to cancel my life insurance for non-payment. I have enclosed yet another payment, this time in the form of a check, to continue my life insurance policy. I will need confirmation that my life insurance is reinstated within a week of receiving this letter.

      Member ID *********. I should have dental coverage I put it on autopay in the amount of 34.00 a month. Something got messed up and they canceled my coverage for dental. I can go into my account on the website but I am unable to get any information. I was informed that I could not get reinstated for Dental coverage and that I would have to wait the following year in order to get the coverage. I have been with this insurance for four or five years and somehow the autopay did not stick and now I am without dental coverage. I would like my dental coverage reinstated as soon as possible.

      Received a mischarge that I would like to appeal. Attached is the EOB and my Summary of Benefits. On page 3 of Summary of Benefits, it states that In-Network visit is a $75 charge. We received a bill for almost $300. I would also like to point out that I visited the same Urgent Care a month prior and paid cash without insurance for the exact same type of visit. The Urgent Care confirmed the visit cost out of pocket is only $125, yet on your statement I see that is says its a $327 for the exact same visit. While I understand that Health insurance providers and hospitals have negotiated rates, I would not think that it would cost 3X for the exact same treatment. I find this to be an error or very immoral and unethical. If I am paying over $800 to protect my family with your insurance, how do you get to turn around and charge me 3X for the same service? Finally, if you are not willing to modify the balance due, I would like to request that this NOT be submitted through insurance so I can pay them directly. In addition if this is not found an error, I will be opening up a Better Business Bureau claim as I find this to be unethical and immoral for working families that pay high amounts for good medical coverage to be price gouged and charged 3X more than what the Urgent Care would charge for a cash payer. I would like the resolution to be that I pay the $75 that me Summary of Benefits states for In Network Urgent Care.

      Dear Dispute Resolution Team:

      This letter is in response to your recent inquiry concerning the above case.

      Thank you for submitting a completed Member Authorization Form.  According to the complaint filed by Mr. **** ********* on behalf of Ms. **** *********, the member stated they received a mischarge that they would like to appeal regarding urgent care services provided on January 16, 2023.  The member stated that on page three (3) of the Summary of Benefits, it states that an In-Network visit is a $75.00 charge, and the member received a bill for almost $300.00.  The claim number is ************* and the total billed charges are $327.00.

      In response to the member’s concerns, we first reviewed Anthem Case Number APP-COMM-1569873.  On March 28, 2023, Anthem received an online appeal from Ms. **** ********* regarding the benefit coverage for the urgent care services provided on January 16, 2023.  On April 26, 2023, an appeal response letter was mailed to Ms. ********* stating in part that:

      “We've finished reviewing the first-level appeal for your claim *************. You requested that we review the cost share for your urgent care provided on January 16, 2023, by Mercy-GoHealth Urgent Care.

      We have sent the claim to be adjusted on April 26, 2023, to be processed with a $75.00 copay per your benefits. Please allow 30 business days for adjustment. Once adjusted you will receive a new explanation of benefits showing the adjustments.”

      I hope this additional information is helpful.  Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to address this concern.

      I have ******* for my medical insurance coverage, I just used it at the doctor and everything went through as it should, however I continue to get Welcome letters from Blue Cross Blue Shield thanking me for using them for my insurance needs. I called the number on the new card they sent and got a runaround, they tried then to sell me auto insurance. I did not sign up with this company nor did I give authorization to be switched. They will not assist me in getting the issues resolved and to stop changing my plan without my knowledge.
