  I arrived to parkland in need of medical attention for a broken tooth which was causing me severe pain. After waiting for 4.5 hours to be seen by the doctor, I was patronized by the medical staff and was refused care. The only care offered was a suggestion by the doctor of telling me to put toothpaste on my broken tooth (example of the patronizing). After I asked him not to patronize me I asked if he was going to provide any actual medical care or if he was just refusing to. He stated that he did provide sufficient care by his suggestion of putting toothpaste on a broken tooth, at that point I realized that I was just wasting time and was not going to receive any actual medical attention. The following morning my dentist was able to get me in for an emergency extraction.

  Outpatient services Oct. 20, 2023. See attachment for details of charges and amounts paid by Medicare and my supplemental plan. These payments were processed Nov. 17, 2023. Parkland supposedly accepts Medicare assignment, but is trying to charge me an additional $10.42 over the Medicare payment, and the approved co-payment amount paid by my supplemental plan. I have tried to resolve this with the third party billing company used by Parkland without success today Nov. 27, 2023.
  This is the second year in a row that Parkland has tried to charge over what is allowed by Medicare. Last year's charge was eventually withdrawn after my report of fraud to Medicare.

  I do not accept the business's response as a resolution to my complaint because: the issue has not yet been completely resolved. I was eventually able to contact the hospital billing dept. directly. They apologized saying for some unknown reason, my secondary insurance had been removed from their records. They said they would rectify this and send the remaining charges to my secondary and contact me when this was complete. The following day, I rec'd a call from 'Marilyn' at Parkland's third part billing with basically the same information. She apologized for the error and for the rude response by one of their customer service reps. the previous day. I will not accept the business's response until they provide me with documentation they have rec'd payment from my secondary insurance and that this charge has been removed from my account.
  I sent you a copy of the wrong part of my bill. The doctor's bill that I sent was separated from the charge the hospital makes for the MD's use of their rooms. They bill this as 'Outpatient' charges. Very confusing! Both the business (Parkland) and their third party billing company are aware of the correct part of the bill that is the reason for my complaint here. If there are any questions, I can send the corrected bill.
  
  
  
  Sincerely,

  I am so tired of dealing with billing errors by Parkland Medical Center in Derry NH. I am 100% covered for post operative cancer related [PT services due to damage/side effects done by surgery and subsequent treatment], by both Medicare and my Ancillary plan through Banker's Life. 100%. No changes have been made to my plans. Parkland repeatedly does not bill correctly, bills out of sequence, does not use the correct billing # and then sends me a bill and eventually sends me to collection when I point out the error and refuse to pay what I do not owe. I write them. I call them. I provide extensive details about their mistakes. Nothing changes. Mistake after mistake. I received yet another erroneous bill today. I am so disgusted by these constant mistakes which eventually get solved once I intervene and refuse to pay the erroneous charges, but I should NOT be doing their job. I am beyond sick of it. Account ************. Date of service 6/7/23 through 6/30/23. HELP.

  I was billed $280 on 07/10/22 at the hospital. The $280 was never applied to my account. Each time I responded to a bill by Parkland I was told it would be corrected. On 11/29/22 I was told to ignore the final bill and it would be resolved within 30 days. On 01/13/23 I received a bill from a debt collector stating that Parkland had closed my case to them. I contacted the debt collector on 01/13 and was told this would be corrected. I spoke with them again on 01/20 and was told to submit all of the previously submitted paperwork. On 01/23 I received a notice from the debt collector that my claim was denied and I owe the $280.

  I do not accept the business's response as a resolution to my complaint because: I was not contacted by Parkland as they stated (stated they left a voicemail but did not).  I have tried to contact Lee T*****  at ###-###-####.  No answer.  I have left voicemails on 02/01, 02/02, and 02/06 with no response.  There is no indication that the $280 has been applied.  The debt collection agency still has an open case for this amount.

  The Patient Access Manager spoke with the patient on Feb. 8 to
  explain what happened with the payment. Since then the funds were transferred
  back to the patient’s account with a $0 balance, and the Patient Access Manager
  spoke again with the patient to let him know this had been completed. A copy of
  the receipt was also mailed to the patient showing the $0 balance, and a letter
  sent to the credit report agency was included, which informs them of the error,
  the current $0 balance, and a request to make sure this does not reflect on the
  patient’s credit report. Thanks.

  I do not accept the business's response as a resolution to my complaint because: I still have not received any documentation to show that the credit was applied to my account and the Debt Collector was notified and will no longer be pursuing the amount.  I spoke with Parkland and was told that documentation would be sent.  None has been received.
