Popple asked: This is making my husband and myself crazy! I am 6 months pregnant and the Insurance Handbook clearly states that all my prenatal care is covered, with the exception on the initial $30 co-pay at the first visit.
Here’s the problem:
My doctors office is called OBBYN Affilates and has 6 doctors. They registered with our insurance (Conventry Health) under the individual doctors names. When you search for a provider, it lists all 6 doctors as covered, but no where says OBGYN Offilates.
The billing office for the doctor keeps submitting claims under OBGYN Offilates, which is not recongnized by the insurance because this is not how they registered. So, we are getting charged a much higher out-of-network rate. The billing office is very rude and states that this is how they have always submitted there claims: OBGYN Offilates w/ the doctors name underneath. However, when looking at our claims on line, it does not say the doctors name anywhere and they are all denied with us owing a large portion. They wont even cover my routine ultrasound!
However, all my prenatal refills at the pharmacy are under the doctors name and they are approved!
We left a message for the office manager at my doctors office and are waiting for a call back. I already called them once and they did nothing.
I am really worried about the hospital bill if this is messed up now!
Any ideas on how to get this fixed? It is such a stupid problem, but no one will cooperate!
Thanks!
Yes, I wish knew this sooner! I had my first prenatal visit in May, but didnt start getting bills until the first of August and I was already out of my first trimester.
