  Had a set appointment booked months in advance. I get a call today saying they need to reschedule me due their being some issues with insurance but instead of contacting my insurance I’m getting the connotation that they forget to get my authorization approved. So they said the only solution is to rebook me for August which is unacceptable. They made a mistake on their end now I’m getting the short end when I’ve been waiting months for this. Especially regarding my health. They need to get the correction authorization from my insurance and rebook me within the next few weeks in a timely manner.

  Thank you for the opportunity to address this patient's complaint.  We are truly sorry the patient's scheduled testing had to be rescheduled.  Due to the recent cyber security breach we unfortunately experienced, we were unable to obtain or verify if the insurance authorization for his test had been received due to our computer systems being down.  Once our diagnostic systems are fully operational, our staff will be monitoring and evaluating our appointment schedules to meet our patient's health care needs.  We appreciate our patient's patience during this difficult time.

  I went to the ER in May of 2022 for an allergic reaction to a medication I was prescribed. I have no complaints about my care received - the staff at KHN were great, and I was in and out quickly. My issue is with the billing department. They incorrectly coded my visit as being for dental, which it absolutely was not, and as such my medical insurance is denying my claim. I specifically selected this hospital because they're in my network. I was told my claim is considered dental because my dentist prescribed me the medication I was allergic to.
  
  If you review my claim, you'll see that I did not receive treatment for any dental issues or pain. I was prescribed an anti-nausea medication and injection. To add insult to injury, the ER physician's bill was corrected and resubmitted to my insurance, but the hospital refuses to update their coding, citing "insurance fraud". Is it insurance fraud, or does KHN not want to award the discount I'm entitled to because the hospital is in-network?
  
  I have filed appeals with KHN and my insurance company to no avail. Of course my medical insurance isn't going to cover it, the claim is marked as a dental service! I have been dealing with this issue since September of 2022 when I first discovered my claim was denied. I've talked to probably 8 different people with no resolution in sight. It really is a shame because the treatment I received was great, but the issues I've had from the billing side will ensure I never return to KHN for services in the future.

  The coding was thoroughly reviewed by our coding department and determined
  to be coded properly, per physician documentation.
  Our claim was denied by insurance as non-covered. There is no
  contractual adjustment indicated on the explanation of benefits, therefore a
  contractual adjustment is not applicable.

  Complaint: ********

  
  

  I am rejecting this response because:

  
  

  It makes absolutely no sense that the ER physician can update their coding, but the hospital continuously refuses to. I submitted the updated EOB that was sent to my insurance company from EMS, and subsequently my insurance covered the physicians charge. I have spoken with ******** at EMS who has spoken with somebody at Kettering health Network, and she also does not understand why this can't be updated. Additionally, I am not satisfied that the person who contacted me from Kettering Health Network was the initial person I had a complaint with! I want to speak with a supervisor. Again, going around in circles over a very simple coding issue is ridiculous.

  
  

  Sincerely,

  Per further review and auditing with the coding
  department,  there is documentation in passing about the nausea and
  vomiting, but only as a secondary issue.  Primary exam, treatment, and
  documentation all indicate the patient’s dental issue as the primary reason for
  the visit.  
  
  Per the False Claims Act,  we cannot code this account
  in a manner that doesn’t match the documented medical records to generate
  payment from her insurance.   
  
  The patient is welcome to reach out to our Medical Records
  department to request an amendment to her chart.   That number is
  ************   option 3.     Per HIPAA law, the
  patient is allowed to make amendments to her own record at any time.

  I got approved for an MRI finally! I had to jump through a million hoops since june to get this approved. So a scheduling Lady named **** calls me and leaves a vm on or about friday the 23rd dec. It was late in the day when I heard the vm and just before my holiday celebration for saturday. I was busy in the kitchen. So I call this week and keep calling. Only to find out she isn't in the office. She's out for a whole other week. There is a note saying no one else is allowed to schedule my MRI!!and no one can tell me if anyone is temporarily filling her position while she is gone! That is incompetent work on behalf of kettering network. All I want to do is get on the schedule so I know my appointment ahead of time. I have many health appts every week. Its very important to get the date and time. I will resend everything from kettering and go to ***** if this isn't corrected asap. A grievance will be filed. To hold my information hostage and not allow me to schedule with **** ******** hospital is absurd!!

  Dear Ms. ********:
  
  I hope this letter finds you well. 
  Your Complaint with the Better Business Bureau (BBB) was received, and
  an investigation begun on January 3, 2022.  At Kettering Health Network, we are
  committed to provide high quality healthcare services to our community and it
  is always our goal to serve you safely and effectively with respect,
  integrity, teamwork, and excellence. 
  Therefore, our responsibility is to assure you, your concerns have
  been investigated and appropriate actions have taken place.
  
  Your care concerns were shared with and reviewed by the Director
  of the Radiology Department, the Manager of the Radiology Department, the Manager
  of Scheduling Services, as well as the Manager of the Patient Relations
  Department.  These individuals are the
  most appropriate to review this matter and take any warranted follow up
  actions.  Our investigation into your
  concerns was completed on January 10, 2022.
  
  I understand that you were approved for an MRI after you had to
  work very hard to get your insurance to approve the testing.  Our investigation found that our staff
  member had reached out on 12/19, 12/22 and 12/26 and left a message. When you
  returned our call, you were told that the person who needed to schedule your
  MRI was out of the office for a week and no one else could provide you the
  assistance you needed to schedule this MRI. 
   We found that a note had been
  placed on your chart not to schedule/reschedule/or cancel the MRI but send
  your call to the original scheduler.  So,
  when you called the team referred you back to this scheduler.  Because this happened it inhibited your
  ability to get this test scheduled in a timely manner.  We very much appreciate that you have
  brought this issue to our attention. 
  We are currently looking at our current process and possible changes
  we can make to avoid this occurrence for other patients in the future.  After finishing our review, I did note that
  you were able to be scheduled for the MRI on January 6, 2022.  Again, please except our apologies as this
  should not have occurred.
  
  I truly hope the above
  information is beneficial to you.  On
  behalf of the KHN, please accept our most sincere apologies if we have failed
  to meet your care expectations and for any stress and anxiety you may have
  experienced.   We appreciate you
  bringing your concerns to our attention and allowing us the opportunity to
  address and improve upon the quality of care and treatment we provide to our
  patients. This completes the investigation and follow-up process.  I truly hope your recovery is going well
  and wish you God’s blessing of improved health for the future.
  
  Should you have any further needs or concerns, please do not
  hesitate to contact me at 513-867-3399.
  
  Sincerely,
  
  
  ******** ****** RN, BSN-CCM, MHA
