Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to review. After further investigation, the site management confirmed with the technician that it was explained to the patient why he could not use his headphones and he was fine with utilizing the ear buds provided to him by the site. We sincerely apologize as sometimes our technicians do tend to run behind but they do the best they can to respect patient's appointment times. The patient's results are automatically faxed to their referring provider as soon as they Radiologist finalizes the report. The patient can obtain a copy of their report from the patient portal, our medical records team, and/or from their referring provider. We apologize for the less than satisfactory experience.

On 3/7 I had an MRI with contrast. Paid the $470.00 .Monday 3/10 I was advised by my bank that they withdrew the $470.00 twice. I called the 800 phone number which sent me to a call center over seas. I was asked for my complete bank account number & full social security number. Why ?Hung up and called back later. Was transferred to 4 different ***resentatives only to be hung up on. Reached out to our local *** who went to the billing ***** They stated to her by email that the amount was not taken out twice. Provided the proof of both transaction numbers and have not heard back from them.Business Response

I am writing to formally address an issue with my billing for an abdominal ultrasound I had on Friday, February 14, 2025, at ****** I. At the time of my appointment, I paid $57.48 based on information provided by the front desk staff, who told me that was the full amount due.However, on March 2, 2025, I received a bill for $502.37. Upon reviewing the Explanation of Benefits from my insurance, I discovered that my insurance covered the entire procedure, leaving only a coinsurance of $39.44. I was informed to pay $57.48 at the time of service, which is significantly more than the coinsurance amount I was responsible for.Given this discrepancy, I am requesting a refund for the overpaid amount of $57.48 and an adjustment to my account to reflect the correct payment of $39.44 and I am not responsible for paying them anything. I appreciate your prompt attention to this matter and look forward to resolving this issue as soon as possible. Thank you for your assistance.Business Response

Hello,
Thank you for allowing us the opportunity to review. After further investigation, our billing department advised that the contract adjustment was not made on the date of service. This was caused by an auto feature and the statement was sent out in error. The billing department did confirmed the patient is due for a refund and they are making the necessary adjustments. They will also contact the patient directly.
Thank you,

My girlfriend went to get a biopsy done to see if she has breast cancer and she was treated in the most atrocious, inhumane, and vile manner. They provided no adequate pain management for the procedure, leading to torturous pain. When she requested it stop, they laughed at her. No one provided any appropriate care given the fact that she is being screened for CANCER. These people were monsters and have no place work in such a field.Business Response

On March 4th I called to make an appointment for both an *** and an x-ray. I made the appointment for the *** for March 6th and they told me that there was no appointment necessary for the X-ray. On March 5th at about 9:30 a.m. I went into the ******************** location to get my x-ray being shooed away. Being told that they didn't have time for me that I needed to come back later in the day after 12:30 p.m. up until 4:00 p.m.. I explained to them that I was informed that an appointment was not necessary. It was on a walk-in basis and why am I being told to come back because that's not a walk-in basis? Right in front of me in line was a person who had an appointment for an x-ray and was seen right away. I asked them how is it possible that that person was able to make an appointment yet I was denied that request?A few hours later I get a phone call in regards to my *** being told that I need to move up my appointment to March 5th at 7:15 p.m. stand at their ****************** location. At about 5:00 on March 5th I get a phone call from the ****************** location that the appointment was made at the wrong location because that's their *** machine is down. I'm very angry over the situation. First off I lost 2 hours of work because of the X-ray and now I'm already in route for my *** being told I can't come because their stupid machine is not operational. Why are these people make an appointment with me for an *** knowing that their machine is non-operational??I have now lost 4 hours of pay because of these incompetent people. Complete incompetence! I'm demanding that I be reimbursed by this company for 4 hours of pay. I want $200 from this company for my time. I make $50 per hour. If I do not work I do not get paid. I cannot afford to lose $200 in pay. I've never dealt with a company that so screwed up with their appointment system. Their system is terribly flawed and has cost me money cost me money out of my pocket. I didn't ask for any of this. ??Business Response

Hello,
We appreciate your patience and opportunity to review this matter. We have identified that occurred when scheduling, this has been brought to the attention of supervisors in that department. We have also addressed this concern with site staff, we have requested for the site management to call and speak directly with the patient to resolve this matter. Per review, we show the patient was contacted on 03/06/2025 to reschedule this exam however, the patient has declined to move forward at this time. Unfortunately at this time we cannot provide compensation for the scheduling errors, we sincerely apologize for any inconveniences this may have caused to the patient.
Thank you.

Yesterday was the fourth appointment for an MRI, because SimonMed rescheduled all of them without my consent and without calling to reschedule.The last one was kept because I called two days in a row, insisting they put in notes for self-pay, even though there was a note about that for ALL of the appointments.EviCorp needed more information from my doctor, hence a delay.When you cancelled the first appointment on THE DAY OF THE SCAN, I wasnt allowed to call Cigna first or be cash pay. Not okay.Why didnt you tell me this a week or two before!?With the third reschedule, they said it gives Cigna more time. Yes, giving Cigna an extra 30 minutes at 8:30pm at night when they are closed makes good sense.We kept calling, saying we would be self pay, but they ignored it and kept cancelling.Also, now you are using a foreign call center. Not all of them are good/helpful, and many dont speak English very well.A supervisor was never available.I want to hear specific things you are going to do to fix the following:1. repeatedly cancelling appointments without patients consent and without calling, especially on the day of 2. not telling patients about insurance issues a week or two before 3. No supervisors ever available 4. schedulers unable to read and write in English sufficiently 5. rescheduling appointments when patients cant come in 6. I want you to refund the $365 that I had to pay out-of-pocket because you didnt tell me that EviCorp needed records.I am in a lot of pain and needed the scan ******* expected my doctor to get records in and EviCorp to process and approve it in one day.7. Cash price was initially $295. Then it was $365, no one could explain it, and we couldnt talk to a supervisor. Why did it change?8. Why was the wrong CPT code in the chart? The code was for injectable cancer drug and not MRI. Or was it an incompetent scheduler who couldnt read English?9. I hope I wont have to contact a local news troubleshooter.Business Response

Hello,

Date of service: 7/05/2024 I am reaching out regarding a charge of $221.22 for imaging on July 5, 2024. I later received a bill for $574, which was not submitted to my insurance until months later and was ultimately covered. However, my Explanation of Benefits (EOB) on Wednesday, February 12th, 2025 and it does not reflect the $221.22 payment I initially made. I sent an email and never received a response. I called on February 19th, 2024 and spoke with ****** (?) from the billing department and he told me that they never received the $574 from **************** even though I received a *** from them stating that they paid for it. So then he proceeded to tell me that I needed to either send the email again or just wait for them to respond. I can't believe how scammy this practice is and I am telling everyone NOT to go to them. I am looking for a refund of the $221.22 that I paid upfront even though I shouldn't have had to pay since my insurance covered it.Business Response

Hello,
We have made the correct adjustments to the account. However, a member from our billing department attempted to make contact with the patient to inform that we have a credit on file. Before we can release the funds the patient will need to return that voicemail to confirm the credit card we have on file.

Hello,
Thank you for allowing us time to further investigate this matter. Upon review we do realize the patient was only responsible for the $60.00 however, on the date of service the exam estimate was pulled and showed their was remaining deductible which resulted in the amount of $251.27. We have refunded the patient back with the overpayment in the amount of $191.27, this was refunded back to the patients card used at time of service. We apologize for the less than satisfactory experience.

I have copies of my receipts and my EOB''s and have offered to send them as proof but have received NO response other than they will "review, look into it and get back to me". This has NOT happened. (At some point in 2024 I did receive a refund check from them for $58.00 with no explanation). To date, they have overcharged me $247.67 and have NOT refunded me. I find it very unsettling that they made no attempt to send me my refunds or responded to my calls/concerns. I wonder how many other elderly people they have done this to. No reconciliation of in's and out's required for this ************* How many other people have they done this to???? Please note I am also filing a Consumer Complaint with the Office of the *******************.

I I've already sent them the information showing that they owe me over $300. They have since sent me one check for $120 and I have not received a check from them for $70.08 to date. I do not agree with their response. And unfortunately since then in December the same situation has happened I paid $80 to them and my insurance company said I should have paid nothing so they owe me another $80 from a transaction I will try and speak them directly and see if I get anywhere.
