6-21-16 Someone used my medical information and my SSN to come to the emergency room at ******************* ** in ********************. I was not there on that day and as a matter of fact i have never been to that emergency room, and my ******* only said i was there for pain management I spoke with billing, couldnt help me. I reported it to the *******************, have not heard back from them. I requested my medical records on 11/28/24 via **** mail, I received a letter yesterday on 12/19/24 almost 20 something days after mailing them. Saying they need more information to identify me as the person really requesting the information Why? They didnt protect my health information in the first place if someone was able to successfully use it in getting their own treatment with it while pretending to be me 12-20-24: I am going to file a complaint with this company who is in charge of my medical records doing business as CIOX health out of **********, so hopefully I will get somewhere with them because this is ridiculous they want my photo id in the request WHAT, my SSN AND DOB doesnt verify who I am but you let someone ***** nilly use my information 8 years ago? I will also be printing this out and attaching the BBB complaint and emails I receive after contacting the health board once again since Im going to open up a new complaint with ***********************Business Response

I have reviewed the complaint and find that the records were located and mailed to Mr. **** on 1/15/25 under my reference number 491078939. Datavant/Ciox partners with this hospital to process requests for copies of medical and billing records only. We are not involved in admissions to the hospital or generating the original records, medical or billing. ************* personal information erroneously was used at the hospital my suggestion would be to contact either their admissions office or their billing/business office to make any corrections that need to be made. Thank you

Complaint: 22668838
I am rejecting this response because:WE HAVE TWO OTHER ACCOUNTS THAT NEED TO BE SATISFIED. THEY WERE SENT TO THE CONTACT AT DATAVANT TODAY FOR COMPLETION. I HAVE THIS DIARIED FOR FOLLOW-UP IN 1 WEEK.
this company has a duty to deliver these medical records in accordance with the rules and regulations under ***** and they are not doing so.I finally got through to someone after 34 minutes on hold, only for them to tell me that I needed to send another request to the provider so it can be issued to Ciox because WE AS A FIRM selected to have the documentation available for only 30 days. However, there are several different people in this firm requesting medical records on several different types of cases and they only send notification of information being available to download to one person. If that person does not handle that case, why would they download the records? PLUS, where is the money we already paid for these records? If I send another request, it will generate another invoice. Our client pays that in the long run and we will not charge them twice. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE ABOUT THIS!

My daughter was going to work for this company. They required she buy a newer cell phone and Apple Watch. They then ordered these through my **** account. My daughter shipped them to a *********************** in *********, MS for encryption software to be added to both devices. They then asked for more money to return the items, which we paid. Then they asked for more money and she decided she would not be working for the company. Then they asked for another $100 to remove her from the system then asked for more money for the items to be returned. We have repeatedly sent them money. Now up to $400 cash plus the $1500 cost of the phone and watch. They are refusing to return the equipment and i have filed larceny charges against ************* in my home county.Business Response

Good afternoon, I have reviewed the complaint and find that unfortunately the complainant was a victim of a scam by a person posing as a employee of Datavant. Requiring an applicant to provide equipment or money is not our practice. The complainant should report this issue to their local police department. Thank youInitial Complaint

I am a lawyer, and regularly request my records and bills from a provider that contracts with CiOX HEALTH. This complaint pertains to a records request.The initial request letter was sent on April 8, 2024. In response to the request, I received invoice number ********** from CiOX HEALTH. I mailed CiOX HEALTH a check with their invoice number on the front along with a copy of their invoice for payment identification. The check cleared my account on April 29, ********** is May 28, 2024. I still have not received the requested records. So, I called CiOX HEALTH, twice.The first call was handled by CiOX HEALTH's automated answering service, and I was asked to provide the invoice number. I entered the 10 digit invoice number on the top right of my invoice. The automated service responded that invoice numbers are nine (9) digits before abruptly disconnecting. (don't use the first number)I called back, jumped through a bunch of automated hoops, and finally got a real person. She said that CiOX HEALTH's system showed payment was received on May 24, 2024.....The check to CiOX HEALTH unequivocally cleared my account on April 29, 2024. So, I informed the representative of the same....She claimed that she sent me an email to show CiOX HEALTH received payment on May 24, 2024. I asked CiOX HEALTH's representative to stay on the line until I received the email she sent. She said no, because the email would take up to 15 (fifteen) minutes to process. It has been a couple hours and no email.Also worth noting, according to SC Code 44-115-80(A)(2) a physician may charge the following for search and duplication of a record: "Sixty-five cents per page for the first thirty printed pages and fifty cents per page for all other printed pages, plus a clerical fee not to exceed twenty-five dollars for searching and handling." CiOX HEALTH's invoice itemizes a $31.02 "Basic Fee" with a unit price of .80 a page for the first 30 pages?Business Response

I have reviewed the complaint and find the following, the request for records was received on 4/10, processed on 4/12 and a pre-bill invoice was generated and mailed to the requester. We received payment for the invoice on 5/24 and the records were printed, packaged and mailed on 5/24. I find the invoice amount to be correct. The rates referenced by the customer are the rates for a specific type of request, a workers comp claim. I will contact the customer to confirm they received the ***********************.

I am rejecting this response because: They have not reached out to me other than the time they called wanting money and gave me an email address that will not accept my return email with the requested documentation. I just want to know who governs them and how I can contact that office. This has been going on with no resolution and I see no point in continuing to wait for a call.
