      Caresource member *********. Applicant became Medicare eligible on August 1, 2022. Caresource was notified by return of August billing to cancel policy effective 08/01/2022 1201 AM. The plan is part of Obamacare and they were notified on July 6 of a change in plan. The Obamacare computer system failed to document the plan cancellation until after August 7 and Caresource continues to bill for almost $208, stating that the plan was not cancelled because of the government action. It is my contention the plan was cancelled before August 1 by mail and then with a follow up letter to Caresource.

      I am rejecting this response because:

       

      I will need a copy of the contract between Caresource and the government as well as the complete contract between Caresource and this writer.  It remains my contention that the written notification between to Caresource  to cancel coverage and declining payment to Caresource terminated coverage,  



      Sincerely,

      Thank you for sharing Ms. ****'s rebuttal to our previous response. To protect
      the member’s PHI, the CareSource resolution was sent to Ms. **** via
      secure email on 11/9/2022. CareSource appreciates the inquiry and believe this resolves
      the matter. Please contact us if we can provide any additional information.

      I am rejecting this response because:  Caresource failed to provide specific answers to question on the last correspondence.  Where in the contract does it specifically state that the policyholder is responsible for the governments failure to accurately upgrade their records or correct their records?  What legal principle is Caresource utilizing when a customer cancels coverage ( in writing) to hold the customer responsible for additional charges?  Instead of blaming the government, perhaps Caresource should address the policyholders legal cancellation prior to the next months effective date?   



      Sincerely,

      On 11/16/2022 an email was sent to Ms. **** with a response to her questions raised in the 11/14/2022 rebuttal. I do apologize for no response being sent to BBB regarding the contact. This was an Indiana Plan complaint and I failed to follow up on their response.  I am not able to provide the resolution as to protect the members PHI information. I did however provide below the top part of the email for your record

      Good Afternoon Ms. ****

       

      Below is the answer to questions you raised in your last communication with the BBB.

      Complaint: ********



      I am rejecting this response because:  I am waiting to hear from the Affordable Care compliance group to respond to our appeal of their improper handling of our plan termination.  It is my opinion that Caresource is wrong and is acting in bad faith, but if the federal government corrects their error perhaps the Caresource folks will correct their error, either way we will not be paying their improper bill and will consider Caresource a very bad company with little regard for ethics and proper business practices.



      Sincerely,
