I am contesting bills the Minuteclinic sent me for the Shingrix vaccinations that I received on July 19, 2022 and September 19, 2022. United Healthcare denied the claim initially under the hospital and medical portion of ********* and subsequently (and immediately) PAID the claim under the Part D prescription drug portion of the policy. I have record that the payment was processed. However, Minuteclinic claims that they have not received payment and continues to send me bills for both injections. I have phoned and written three letters to the claims department regarding this error. A United Healthcare representative phoned the Minuteclinic and spent considerable time trying to get you to rectify the situation with no result.

Both my husband and I went to CVS the shingle shots. We gave the nurses our insurance cards which are ******** and Empire BC/BS. They asked us to wait to check out the insurance and after 15 minutes told us all was good and we would not have to pay for this service. Both of us got the shots. On or about Dec. 6th 2022 I received a statement stating I owe $153.00 and then another statement followed on Dec 31st stating the same.On or about January 4th I called and asked them what it was for and they said for the shingle shot . I also received the influenza shot that they state no cost. When I explained that I was told it was all clear and we would not have to pay for either service the party on the other end said this. Oh, you have to go to ******** and submit the invoice they will then reimburse you for that ******* shot. I explained fine but I have no invoice and would need one in order to call ******** to find out how this is handled. They gave me a web site in order for me to access the account however had problems in doing so. I called back and next operator was not helpful at all. I decided to wait a few days and just a few days ago retried. This operator was much more helpful and I obtained the invoice. In the meantime, my husband never received his invoice and on the phone I was told he owes this as well. I asked for the same setup and they could not help me since he would have to get on the phone to open up with a e-mail address to get this invoice. My husband is disabled does not touch a computer and all we want is the invoice sent to us by mail so we can get these charges cleared and paid for by ********. By not receiving an invoice for him nor a statement I cannot go and ask for ******** to pay his charges. I need help in getting this $153.00 invoice from minuteclinc which they refuse to send by mail. I cannot pay a bill if we do not have an invoice.Business Response

I am double-covered with my medical insurance. They billed my secondary insurance first instead of my primary insurance. As a result, my secondary insurance, TeamCare BCBS, denied the claim and requested the primary insurance ***. This was on 04.14.22. I have contacted MinuteClinic three times asking them to provide the *** to ********* BCBS. During each of the calls, the representative says they will submit the *** to ********* BCBS. On December 28th, I received another statement demanding payment for the balance due - $90.97. My secondary insurance is still waiting for the ***. ********* BCBS is a different branch of the broader BCBS organization and documentation cannot be submitted to the broader group. I tried to explain this today to no avail.I do not want this account to go to a collection agency and quite frankly, I'm tired of dealing with this for almost a year.Thank you for your assistance,*****Business Response

At 09/06/22 I came to the Minute clinic at Davidson, for the remove ear wax procedure. The doctor has tried to remove ear wax, but the attempt was unsuccessful, I went out from clinic with same ear wax as I came there. After that I've received, a bill with full amount as it was normal good made procedure. I called to the clinic and asked them why I should pay money for the nothing? They told me that their manager will call me. After couple months of waiting and receiving couple bills with the same original amount I made a call them again and received same proposal to wait the manager call. Today 01/09/2023 after 4 months I've got a call from hidden number, and the person from other side told me that all amounts are setup correctly and they did make ATTEMPT to remove ear wax, and I should pay not for the result, but the attempt and for the "medical expertise", I asked her why I should pay the full amount for such kind low expertise and for the attempt without the result? She didn't answer me on that question, just repeated her initial statement like a robot.They receive some money from insurance already and my proposal was that should be enough for the "attempt", but they continue their attempts to charge me for the full and don't want to listen any objections. This looks not like a responsible medical institution but like fraud. They did nothing, but try to get money.Business Response

Better Business Bureau:I have reviewed the response submitted by the business and have determined that the response does not satisfy or resolve my issues and/or concerns in reference to complaint # ********. Please add your rejection comments below; if you do not provide any details, your complaint will be closed as Answered.
About the business response have to say following:
1. They started contacted me only after my several calls.
2. They called from the hidden numbers, so I wasn't sure to who I'm speaking with.
3. During our last conversation, (01/11, after BBB was involved) they told me that they billed me for the office visit, for the first time from september, but during the appointment I choose exact procedure from their list of options: Ear Wax Removal and that procedure was nod done successfully. In our previous conversation they told me they're billing me for the "attempt" and "medical expertise", now they're bring the "office visit" to the table. This is not the way how it should work from my understanding. I choose the particular and very specific procedure from THEIR list and that procedure was not completed, so why I should pay for that and why they begin changings in their explanations? That bill is not correct by it's nature.
Businesses and Customers should be civil, courteous and polite in their responses to complaints. It is important to remain professional and productive when participating in the BBB complaint process.

On 6/8/22 I had bloodwork done at the Minute Clinic and was told it wasn't covered by my insurance so I had to pay $69. They gave me a form to send to my insurance for reimbursement which came back saying I should have only been charged $27.03. In October I discovered that Minute Clinic had double billed my insurance company trying to collect a second time on the bloodwork. At that time I spoke to a woman named ***** at Minute Clinic who acknowledge they owed me a refund of $41.97. As of this date, I still have not received it. Every time I call Minute Clinic Corporate offices about my refund, I get a different story and more lies.Business Response

Appt. for COVID PCR test via Min.Clinic Supp. telephone number.Test done at CVS drive-thru.Arrive 10 minutes before appt time. Waited for one car for 5 minutes.Never received an email or confirmation of appt. as they mentioned I would. All arrangements done speaking to real agent. Agent said test takes five (5) minutes.My turn at window. Gave my confirmation code, name and why I was present. **** said wait while we get your test ready.Twenty (20) plus minutes later the test is delivered out the window to me. Lady gave instructions. Any question to speak up as she was leaving mic.on.I spoke up and no one came back to window for a few minutes. 4 cars in line behind me.MinuteClinic support line said I would get results in ***** hours.Called next day to re-verify correct text to #.Looking for results a day or two later. MinuteClinic said I would have results texted by (12-31-2022).Sat. came and went. I did not want to go out for New Years for fear of being contagious.Called Mon. morning looking for results.******* Rep ******** told me about the result on the phone. She was the best Rep I had spoken to from any company in quite a long time. She saw flaws in antiquated system that led me to not receive the promised results on time.Never offered me the MyChart or CVSonline portal options.I needed results emailed. Rep from day before said Yes without hesitation. Really- Some red tape then yes.The business model CVS is governed by is in need of study. The pharmacy is so busy medication pickups are laying on the floor.The thousands of BBB complaints against their Pharmacy and MinuteClinic is shameful and alarming.I lost work hrs at drive thru as well as not being able to celebrate NYear's Eve with people I see once a year. Request CVS Exec to call me to confirm this is how they want to run their business and make a reasonable offer for restitution greater than $200.CVS has been performing COVID testing for years & still has not got it down right.Business Response
