Envision Health claims I owe them $545.45 for unspecified services rendered at ******************. I received services at this hospital in January 2022 and all bills have been accounted for. This new, late bill is being sent 9 months after, via email and SMS, with no detail as to what the charged services are, who provided them or when. I received written notification of all expenses having been accounted for with no further obligation on my part. I'm currently overseas and I cannot upload this document at the time. Starting Oct 7, and with no previous written statements, I started receiving these online payment demands from Envision Health. Their emails require that I login to the their system, which I won't do as I won't acknowledge any debt that is not spelled out in written form with a verifiable trail pointing to real people or institutions I can talk to and who can prove I owe them.Business Response

On 11/30/21 my wife visited the emergency room for a migraine headache. We waited over an hour to see a doctor. When we finally saw the doctor it was for less than 5 minutes. We were billed over $2,000 for the hospital visit and paid $716 to the physician. We were then sent another bill from the physician for another $357.18. I called ******** to dispute the charges as being excessive and they refused to take the complaint over the phone. They told me to submit the complaint via email which I did. ******** did not respond to my email complaint and continues to send bills for the excessive services. The account number is ***************.Business Response

I had surgery on 1-14-2022. This surgery is completely covered by my insurance. This company did not bill the insurance but sent me a bill instead. I have attempted to contact over 5 times. The number on the bill does not work only takes credit cards. I found a number online.. It only works periodically. Most times I get a message saying the receptionist is not available.. I have called and reached someone twice. The 1st time we established that they had billed the wrong insurance company. I gave them correct information it still was not billed and I received a threatening letter instead. The 2nd time I reached someone I included my insurance company on the line they gave them the information, again and request that the bill be sent to them for payment. It still has not happened to my knowledg, because, I am still receiving collection election request.Business Response
