The United Health Care saga continues. I called Care Coord. 2 weeks ago and was given a Network Gap Number. I called QAS with that number and reordered my supplies. The supplies are being delivered today.
Now the saga...
I received a call this morning from UHC saying "Oh, we DO have an in network provider and we are not approving your gap #"
I told them I wasn't told that the number was "pending approval"
"All our numbers are pending approval"
"Why wasn't I told this."
"You were read a statement at the end of your call."
"No I wasn't"
"Yes you were. All our agents read a statement."
"Well this agent did not, just gave me the number and said that should do it."
"Well, you need to refuse delivery of the supplies. Then call our in network provider."
Long, long story short. I got no where with them. I thanked them for calling me 2 weeks after the fact regarding supplies that kept me from having a stroke so they wouldn't be paying thousands of dollars for my stroke medical care.
I called QAS and asked about refusing supplies and explained my morning's drama. QAS was very kind and helpful. The agent went directly to his insurance department, then called me back and told me not to refuse the shipment. That sending it back to them was just like me throwing them out. To keep them and that they would pursue the issue with UHC and get it worked out.
I LOVE UHC.
Customer Service kept telling me I needed to call Care Coordination to get it resolved. Care Coordination kept telling me I needed to call Customer Service to get it resolved.
