      I was a patient at Hackensack Hospital in Hackensack NJ for 1 week. The hospital lost my bag containing my dentures, phone, coat, and clothes. I spoke with the nurses, and security and they were not able to locate my belongings. I am not able to eat solid food without my dentures, and without my telephone it took 3 days to get in touch with my sister to let her know I was hospitalized. I expect to be reimbursed for my belongings.

      Complaint: ********



      I am rejecting this response because:

      A representative from Hackensack Meridian Patient Experience reached out to me on September 13th to review my complaint.  I explained my concerns. Even though it’s not the correct amount, I let her know that I paid the bill in full. I paid because I was now being contacted by a debt collector. I was told she was reaching out to a billing specialist and would get back to me.  

      I reached out to the Patient Experience representative on September 18th to follow up as I had not received any communication since her initial call.  The representative reviewed billing specialists notes that I was to contact Medicare and MSP Contractor. I advised her that nobody had communicated this to me and I have already called both my insurance companies and don’t know who MSP Contracting is.  

      The representative spoke of escalating this, I feel this should have already been escalated.  I have been bounced around since June with no answers, reluctantly paid a balance that is $68.91 higher then it should be because they sent it to a debt collector.  I feel this should have been resolved by now. There is an EOB that states my max out of pocket is $17.29.  Hackensack Meridian is the only provider I have had a problem with.  I have done all I can to get this resolved.  I ask that I be reimbursed the $68.91 that was overpaid and incorrectly billed immediately.  







      Regards,



      ********* ******** 

      , one lists ***** as primary the other lists ******** as primary but balance is same on both bills. I hope you can help with a resolution.
