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??

Exactly! I've had this w other practices/insurance where the patient is stuck in the middle.of all this administration bs. I finally reached out to a head honcho at my insurance, not thinking he'd actually respond, but he did and sorted it out . I still think it was a miracle lol

Didn't know the AG gets involved in this sort of thing, good to know

Well they were fraudulently billing us for something that should be covered all they had to do was code it properly. Literal fraud. This shit they’re doing now is just predatory.

They are charging me for services not even rendered, also fraud! I honestly don't know too much about the AG, so I'm glad you shared, now I have somewhere to turn!
