I was billed for product I have never received. I have attached the following invoices from:06-19-23 0.00 balance 07-2023 No invoice sent by apria 08-2023 No invoice sent by apria 09-2023 No invoice sent by apria 10-2023 No invoice sent by apria 11-2023 No invoice sent by apria 12-2023 Apria invoice claimed I owed ***** from 12/19/22 I am not sure if I received those supplies and never saw invoice or heard from apria.01-19-2023 Apria invoice claimed I now owed ****** from prior balance and supplies that I never received. Again I never saw this invoice. Also I attached summary of benefit's from BCBSIL that I owed 0.00 to Apria. I vaguely remember receiving a call from Apria about denial. I advised them I was no longer able to us the machine because of medical issue. The person said the supplies would not be shipped and further supplies would be suspended.02-19-2023 Apria invoice stated that ***** was sent to collections and my balance was 272.12.I was accidentally was checking my apria account when I discovered these bills and that I was sent to collections. I never received anything in the mail or a phone call advising I owed money. I immediately called apria. I explained all of the above to phone rep. I immediately paid ***** over the phone and advised rep a letter or phone call would have been good as I have perfect credit and have never been sent to collections. We discussed the remaining balance and told me she would call back with resolution. I never received call back and spoke to 2 more Reps on different date who said the same. No call back. I attempted on line chat several times most reps said nothing they can do. One said its been taken care of and it has not. Attached is last documented order I received from 09/20/2022. Many more call were unsuccessful. I paid $5 to avoid collects again. Requesting refund of $5 and the bill reduced to 0.00. Hours of attempts have gone unanswered by Apria so this is basis of my complaintBusiness Response

Thank you for taking the time to bring your concerns to our attention.Upon review of your account, the billing representative confirmed that the balance of $267.12 has been recalled from collections, the rental equipment that was under maintenance and service (at no charge) has been converted to sale belonging to you. We did not see where our resupply representatives attempted to contact you in June regarding the supplies that were shipped for the 6/19/2023 date of service nor were statements sent till January of 2024,due to this error that is why we recalled the balance from collections and requested a refund in the amount of $40.77. Please allow the collection agency 30 days to remove the balance and to notify the credit bureau to update the credit report if reported. The refund process can take approximately 7-10 business days and a check will be mailed to the address we have on file. We do sincerely apologize for the errors that occurred.

I called Apria 3 times over a 3-month period and was told all 3 times they would have to start a new refund process.
The 4th time I was told my account was reviewed on March 5th and they wouldn't refund my money back into my debit card account.
and that they didn't come up with an alternative way to get me my money so that's when I was forced to file the complaint
After they received the complaint, they offered me multiple ways I could get my money back and I chose a ach and did receive my ******* months after they took it.
They can go on and lie about a check being mailed just like they continually lied to me about getting a refund for 3 months I just wonder how many victims there are out there.
Thanks to the BBB at least I was able to get my money back!

Terrible CUSTOMER SERVICE. I GAVE THEM MY NEW INSURANCE AND THEY STILL WONT BILL CORRECTLY. STOP OUTSOURCING YOUR WORK. THEY DONT GIVE A C*** ABOUT YOUR CUSTOMERS.Business Response
Date: 03/27/2024
Thank you for taking the time to bring your concerns to our attention.Upon review of your account, we have confirmed that correct insurance has been verified and added to your account. Since the insurance requires authorization and it was not obtained, we have initiated an adjustment for dates of service 8/19/23 & 9/19/23. All payments that have paid towards those dates of service have been reversed and a refund of $92.30 has been requested. Please allow approximately 7-10 business days for the refund to be processed and for the refund to be mailed to you at the address we have on file. We do sincerely apologize for the issues you have had with customer service and the lack of follow through on your new insurance being added to your account.

Apria Health picked up rented equipment in December, 2022, but don't have it logged. They pretend all correspondence by phone and mail have not occurred, but we are keeping the phone logs showing the incoming and outgoing calls and minutes with Apria, as well as certified mail receipts in preparation for a lawsuit. They are billing for the equipment as if it were purchased and not rented and returned. Despite reminding them over and over again that they picked up the equipment, they continue to harass, and even went so far as to lie to attorney general on a complaint filed with them. I am guessing, based on complaints here by so many, and previous lawsuits, they have terrible record keeping and depend on stealing from the sick and weak.Business Response

you also filed a rebuttal complaint with the ************************ and provided the date and location of where the pickup was to have taken place. Apria reached out to **************** Lodge on March 20., 2024 and was informed that the rental equipment was still at their location. Apria has no records of being told where the equipment was to have been picked up until the rebuttal Attorney General complaint letter was received on March 19, 2024. We are in the process of having the equipment picked up and we have removed the amount that was charged to ****************,leaving him with a $0.00 balance.
If you require further assistance regarding your billing, please call ************.

I have been a customer of ********************** since 9/22. They have unbundled service date charges and equipment purchases, refused to **** ******** for 2 months of service, and have overcharged us approximately ****** to date. All ****ing is outsourced, and after dozens of phone calls, no one returns a call with the answer to questions about dates over****ed. They have refused to send an itemized statment that tells every credit card charge, and what date of service it is applied towards. Recently I received a **** with charges going back to 2022 included! On 2/23/24 I was assured I would have a statement within 10 business days. That has not happened. I have supporting documentation in ******** statements, EOB's from our secondary insurance, credit card charges, and can produce phone records if needed.Business Response
Date: 03/22/2024
Thank you for taking the time to bring your concerns to our attention.Upon review of your account, we confirmed that your account is currently under payor change status for insurance verification in order to **** ******** for the pending claims on your account. The invoice that was placed in collections has also been removed; therefore, you are no longer responsible for that charge. I also confirmed that an itemized statement was sent to you as requested on March 20, 2024, and I also sent a copy via mail to ensure you receive the documentation for your review. Once claims are processed for payment with your plan ******** you will be refunded if any overpayments reflect on your account.

The statements made by Apria are innacurate. My account is not under a payor status change. ******** became primary on 5/1/23, with my original insurance becoming secondary. This was confirmed 3/27/23 that Apria had the correct information. ************* records, this was correctly changed in July 2023. All claims begeinning in July have been correctly sent to ******** first, insurance second. (although there is still a question of the amounts charged. That will be addressed upon receiving the itemized statement). We have repeatedly asked them to correct their mistake of not billing in *** and ****! And no, I have not received an email copy as stated by Apria.
After reviewing my online account on 3/19/24 I discovered a new statement, which listed a charge submitted for collections! The charge was for a service date in ***, 2023. After a 2 hour phone call with a billing "supervisor", I again attempted to explain they needed to resubmit charges to ******** for *** and June of 2023, and demanded they contact the collection agency. I do not feel the "supervisor" understood how insurance even works from the statements she made. Most of the phone session was educating her on how it works.
I have saved notes from phone records and have documentation on 3/27/23 at 2:10pm when I spoke to an Apria representative to update the ******** and Insurance information. This has been going on now for a year! This continued need to contact Apria is unacceptable. Their unbundled charges are unacceptable. I have 4 months left on my contract with Apria, and need these past billing errors corrected. I need a statement of all charges, and what dates of service, equipment purchases, they were applied towards. I need to be refunded the overcharges to date. It is beyond unacceptable to be turned into a collection agency because this company has an inept billing department. I need to know I will not be receiving random bills a year from now, like the one I recently received that included 2022 charges.
I was told by the billing "supervisor" on 3/19/24 that I would be receiving a statement in 10 business days. She also said the claims charge would be removed. To date, it still shows online that it has not been removed. Today is 3/22/24.

Do I need to attach my last statement to another thread? I responded back to BBB, but it can be sent to Apria if they are unable to see it. The information I responded with specifically addresses their statements.Business Response
Date: 04/01/2024
Thank you for taking the time to bring your concerns to our attention.Upon review of your account, we have confirmed that Apria has recalled the balance from collections and we request that you allow the collection agency 30 days to remove the balance and to notify the credit bureau to update your credit report if reported. Thus far we have initiated a refund in the amount of $92.89 as your account is currently under review. Due to your insurance requirements,we could not start billing your insurance for the rental equipment until 7/28/2023, the date of your face to face with your ordering physician. Your current insurance has certain requirements that the provider and patient must meet prior to billing for the equipment you are receiving, in saying that Apria makes every attempt to obtain all documentation so that the billing of the equipment goes smoothly. We do see where an itemized statement was sent to you on 3/27/2024. We do sincerely apologize for the frustration you have encountered.

I have reviewed the response made by the business in reference to complaint ID ********, and have determined the response would not resolve my complaint. For your reference, details of the offer I reviewed appear below.There is no discrepancey in coverage. In that time frame there were face to face Dr ***** on 2/8/26, 5/10/23, and 7/31/23. We were also required to physically bring the unit to the *********, ** office to be inspected. There is no reason ******** should not have been billed. Upon advice by an ******** Congresswoman, we submitted the claims ourselves for those 2 months, since Apria refuses to, yet has come up with a $ amount to bill us.
We did receive the itemized billing statement. Thank you for that. The problem is the amounts on many of the entries are not correct, and do not match the amounts turned in to insurance. From the first entry on 9/23/22 Apria shows insurance was billed ******, and insurance payment was 108.87. According to my insurance EOB, Apria billed BCBS ******. and BCBS paid 90.03. There are some entries that are correct, but many like this example. There is no excuse for these bookeeping/billing errors. I am in the process of cross referencing with the insurance EOB's. There is still an overcharge, even with the credit mentioned. It appears to be closer to 200.00. There is a December 2023 payment ************ Apria shows was taken, yet the e-check has not gone through the bank. They documented it went through the first of ************ ******** has confirmed it has not. There is also a 1/28/24 EOB that we have not been billed for. I will be preparing the discrepancy amounts, considering all the above issues.

************4/3/24 We called the above number to speak to the Billing Specialist to see if we need BCBS to contact them since there are discrepancies between the insurance company, and the amounts given to us by Apria. We spoke to a ******. She said she was unable to contact him, but said according to records they removed the collection charge, and were issuing the ***** refund. We told ****** the amount was not a sufficient refund. She said as of todays date we have a zero balance.
After going through all our records, against Apria's statement. There was a discrepancy of ****** overbilling from 9/2022 until the end of November 2023. Apria says December 2023 was paid. With the dishonest billing we had revoked their ability to withdraw from our credit card, so a payment was made of ***** by e-check. I took a computer screen shot of the confirmation. Per our records, and the bank employees, this has not gone through our account. From our insurance EOB's, we will also owe ***** for the January 2024 service. ******************** has not yet been submitted to insurance or Medicare. Also in limbo is the May and June 2023 charges that Apria refused to bill to Medicare. As I stated above. We have submitted them on our own, and supplied documentation to Medicare. We were told the process could take ***** days.

Update. We spoke to BCBS on 4/4/24. We asked if they were able to send Apria copies of the EOB's that Apria gave incorrect amounts for. They were not able to, but if Apria requested, they could have a remittance sent for each of the dates that were incorrect on the records Apria provided. The problem is it would be every Apria charge received for that date, not just ours, so potentially thousands. Someone at Apria would have to match up to our account number. If needed, I can provide those dates that range from 9/23/2022 to a recent EOB for 1/28/24 that Apria gave an incorrect amount.
Also, as I said yesterday, the Apria rep ****** assured us she would call back about the discrepancy in billing. She has not called.

On 2/22 I called Apria to make sure my CPAP supplies order would be sent out when I became eligible. They assured me everything would ship out on 2/29. When I called on 3/11 asking for an expected delivery date, nothing had been shipped. On 3/12 I asked to speak to a supervisor but was told they were all having phone issues. on 3/13 I asked to have a callback from a supervisor between 12:30 and 1:30. ***** said I would get that callback. When I called at 12:37, ***** said I couldn't speak to a supervisor because I was already on the callback list but she assured me I'd get a callback between 12:30 and 1:30. I did not. On 3/14 **************** told me I couldn't speak to a supervisor because it was too late in the day and they were all gone. On 3/15 Ebony hung up after putting me on hold. Also on 3/15 *********************** manager told me that the one piece of equipment I needed was NOT in the order they had shipped out. He said he would speak to the supply team to see what I was eligible for and then assured me he would call me back within 30 minutes to an hour. I received no callback from him. My CPAP headgear has been stretched out and no longer fits because I've had it for over 6 months. Therefore, I am not getting the correct CPAP therapy at night that I have been medically prescribed. This company is blocking my proper healthcare. I have been going around with this inept company for a week with no resolution and some of the worst customer service I've ever dealt with. I have been trying to get my new frame since 2/22 and it is now 3/17 and it hasn't even been shipped yet. I've lost nearly a month of sleep due to this. In the 7 months I've worked with Apria, they haven't gotten a single order right. I used to have a contact named **************** could call who would fix my orders.

Apria provided medical supplies. I have requested a an overview of invoices and products supplied and their phone customer service representatives have not been able to assist. Furthermore, I paid what they told me would make my account current, the next month they told me I had an outstanding balance from the prior year. I have spent hours on the phone with many representatives and have asked my questions and concerns be escalated, which they tell they will do and will be contacted in the next week, and nothing ever happens, Very concerned about their customer support and billing practices.

However, the same claim was placed with collections which the insurance later paid.

Beginning 1/2024 I had contacted them to pick up my Oxygen Recording device. They have scheduled pick up several times and have not done so yet. On 3/11/2024 my oxygen was discontinued by my doctor. I contacted Apria for pick up. They scheduled for 3/14/2024 but never showed up. I contacted their office and now they have scheduled for 3/26/2024. In the meantime ******** and Tricare are being charged for the oxygen. This could result in ******** and Tricare fraud.Business Response

Thank you for taking the time to bring your concerns to our attention.Upon review of your account, the general manager confirmed that the overnight oximetry test, which records your activity during sleep, was not provided by Apria Healthcare, rather it was provided through VirtuOx. The device was received from VirtuOx on or around the 15th of November 2023; however, it was not returned for processing to VirtuOx. Once the patient informed Apria by phone that they were no longer qualified, and would need the oxygen equipment picked up, the Apria owned equipment was placed in pick up status, which stopped all billing to the patient and insurance provider effective on that day 3.12.2024. Rescheduling for pickup at a later date did not restart or create a new charge/bill to generate as this was an Apria driven reschedule due to capacity and staffing.
At Apria Healthcare,our customers are an essential part of our business. Be assured that Apria Healthcare takes your concern very seriously. We want to stress that it is Aprias goal to be the first choice of patients and customers for their homecare needs.
