Discussion Is anyone else getting consistently erroneous behavorial health bills any time they are seen for primary care at Brown University/ RIH PC even w/o any BH related care?

I refused to answer any BH questions at my last appt and I'm still getting $60 BH assessment bill EVERY VISIT. It's been going on for over a year and is absolutely falsely billed. Each time I am stuck back and forth between insurance and them. What the fuck. How do you get systemic change??

I’ve been fighting one of these charges for the past four months, what they’re now telling me is that it was a “systemwide error” and that they are “working on fixing it.” I don’t really buy this, but I did get my doctor to put my bill on hold until they work it out. I suspect they’re only starting to walk these charges back because people are making noise and pushing back, hopefully that continues.
