I saw a Crozer primary care physician in October 2022. Over 1 1/2 years later, I received a bill for the appointment for $325. I have Blue Cross Blue Shield health insurance, so it should have been zero or $30 copay. I looked up my EOB and saw there was an error code for the submitted charges. Crozer Health never provided the name of the physician, etc. The error code said the information was requested by BCBS, but Crozer failed to provide it, so the claim was denied. I called Crozer Health's phone number on the bill and explained they just needed to provide the information. The rep, "John," with a heavy foreign accent, told me that they were not going to do that and that I was responsible. He was so rude and condescending. I thought he was joking, so I asked to speak to his supervisor. He said I had to provide my phone number, and the supervisor would call me back within 24 hours. How can you work for a health provider's billing department and not understand that the insurance companies require certain information and if you fail to provide it you can't just say "oh well, we'll just tell the patient they need to pay the entire fee"?! It's almost criminal. I immediately called Blue Cross and they looked up the info and said Crozer only had to supply the missing info and the charges were not even billable to me (due to Crozer's error.) She put me on hold and called Crozer, after about 20 minutes, she came back to me and stated she was waiting to speak to a supervisor. After a few more minutes she came back on the line and said she was able to have the supervisor understand, and they now will provide the info and BCBS will pay once the info is received and that I will still receive a call from the supervisor. Well, of course, I was never called back by the supervisor and am concerned they will not handle this correctly. Crozer Health billing department employees need to either be retrained or fired. read more
