Update: They got back to me via email and stated that they were having staffing issues. Last week…read moreon Wednesday in these emails, I was told that a MRI on additional area could not be scheduled at this time because while they had the order from my doctor it had not been authorized by my insurance. I had a MRI today for a different area. The technician that performed my MRI was great and used plenty of humor to help make the time go by. Five star experience on the actual MRI. On my way out the door, I stopped at the desk and asked the receptionist if there was an update available on where my approval was at for the other MRI area. It had been approved by my insurance. Rayus had not contacted me at all to let me know it was approved or get me scheduled - they have my email and text. When they checked me in, they made zero mention of it. I just happened to find out because I asked about it. Their administration side of things is just bad.

The woman at the front desk yesterday afternoon/early evening was incredibly rude and dismissive…read more My husband came down with paper orders for an MRI immediately following his appt and tried to explain that we do not need prior authorization. The woman at reception immediately shut him down (after being seemingly dumbfounded that we would even ask for such a thing), refused to even double check with our specific plan, and as a result he wasn't able to get an MRI with Rayus in a timeline that our insurance absolutely does allow. Obviously if surgery is needed we want that to happen as soon as possible. We reached out to our insurance immediately after this experience and our personal advisor with our insurance confirmed that this woman at Rayus was, in fact, completely wrong and we did not need a prior authorization because of an agreement that our insurance has with Rayas. This has the potential to actually cause harm to patients who may need something stat and are unable to get it based on over-confidence and an unwillingness to consider that patients may know their own healthcare plans and the requirements needed for different services. It never hurts to take two minutes to double check, but she acted like our very existence was an annoyance from the moment we walked in the doors. We fortunately were able to schedule with a different radiology organization for today, as they had zero issue actually looking at our specific plan to confirm what we knew--no prior authorization is needed. Then we were able to schedule a follow up dr. appt for the day that this employee was first allowing us to schedule the MRI; this demonstrates that she would have delayed him getting medical attention from his doctor by over one week for no reason at all. Not only is this not great for patient care/health, but it also ended up in losing us as a client and the revenue that would bring into Rayus. I would imagine that our insurance has a specific agreement with Rayus to waive prior authorizations in order to avoid experiences like we just had. I hope that there is some retraining that will be done on how to interact with people, what is actually required on different healthcare plans, and how to quickly double check requirements rather than the immediate "I know more than you" approach we got. Many of us actually know our healthcare plan requirements (despite the assumption that we are clueless) but even if we didn't, there would have been much better ways to handle this interaction that wouldn't have us leaving and commenting about how rude she was/that we may not want to go here anyway. My husband tried to call today to cancel our appt and explain that the information we got was wrong, but after being on hold for over 15 minutes he hung up. Based on the reviews, it seems like we aren't the only ones that she has left a negative impression on.
