    I was employed by *********************** for the '22-'23 school year starting in October '23, I opted for their insurance plan through Sun life. I hadn't received a card from them but had been paying automatically through my paycheck & received confirmation from HR that I was enrolled. They provided me with contact #s to call to request my insurance info. Sunlife had difficulty finding me in their system, initially said they didn't have me enrolled, & at one point I was told the policy they had with WPS was closed, so I went back & forth between ************ HR until I was finally given insurance info. My dentist said they accepted *********** received services in January 2023 from Dr. *********************** In June my employment changed thus my insurance. I contacted Dr. ********************** regarding my next visit & explained that my insurance changed to wellsense/masshealth & asked if they accepted ****** was told they did. I was informed that sunlife hadn't paid for my visit in January so I was enlisted to contact them, which I did a number of times. I called Dr. ********************** office a number of times to make sure that the bill from January went on my sunlife insurance not the new insurance information. I was assured by Dr ********************** front desk that they had both insurance ******************* would try submitting the past visits again to sunlife. I received services from Dr ********************** again in July. I checked again that they had my new insurance information & that the visits were billed to the appropriate insurance companies. Every time I called Dr. ********************** I checked on the information I gave them, making sure they had the two insurance ******************* were used correctly, & asked if sunlife had paid yet. In the fall of 2023 I had a conversation with **** again on Dr ********************** front desk, she said she submitted all my 2023 visits to sunlife & that they don't accept my new insurance. Resulting in a huge bill. She acknowledged our conversations but offered no apology or resolution. Now I owe more than I can afford.
