DrugScan - "No Bills" to patients

anonymous

Guest
DrugScan is winning business by claiming they never send a patient a bill -ever. Either in-network or out-of-network they will not bill the appropriate deductible or conisnurance. Only a matter of time till this lab pays big $$ to insurance plans that find out their illegal practices. United, Medicare, BCBS... you do not have to look too closely to under their billing fraud.
 




I've ran into a few places where offices have told me. A few competitors were saying they only send one bill? Huh? Other offices have told me the reps are telling them that their patients will not get a bill at all? Huh? Again. I believe one lab in particular either sends out EOBs and bills months later or doesn't send them at all. Anytime I ask if their patients get bills. They say NO. I said never? Nope, we have never heard of any of or patients getting a bill. So you mean to tell me you have been with this company for 6 months. Sending a good number of specimens month and none of them have ever gotten a bill? Every rep will have a patient at some point. That either doesn't have insurance or has out of network insurance. It's inevitable. They say it as if me asking about it is some unheard of thing. Do you patients ever get bills? "God no, never" like which are tells me they aren't sending them out.
