On November 4th, I requested surgical notes with a deadline of December 8 ahead of planned but emergency surgery on December 11th. Checking back weekly I was told "The records were taking time to compile". On December 8th, I make an eleventh hour appeal to get the records. they are begin readied as we speak! (Thank God) just pay the fee and you can download. I pay the fee and nothing is made available. No downloads. No emailed links. Nothing. They received payment but am left to go into surgery with a surgeon who is not as prepared as he could be - as he didn't have the notes to compare to my last surgery. my future health is the result of Verisma's poorly maintained service and interface and lack of staff.Business Response

We did speak with the patient, and she will be issued a refund. She no longer needs the records. There may have been an issue with the download function when she attempted to download the records that has since been fixed. We do apologize for any inconvenience that this caused.Initial Complaint

I submitted a request for medical records on June 20, 2023. I have spoken many times with representatives of Verisma who tell me that the records do exist and they have expedited or escalated the request. I get this answer every time I call, but I still have not received the records though I have a legal right to receive them. I have seen online many complaints about Verisma's poor service and that it takes them forever to deliver medical records. I am worried that it may take months for Verisma to deliver the records or that they will never be delivered at all. I need my records immediately.Business Response

It looks like records are available to download-I have reached out to the patient to assist in resolving this matter. Steps have been taken to avoid this in the future.Initial Complaint

I have tried to contact this company several times to get my my records transfered from *******Medical Group to ***** Rural Health and they have yet to answer the phone. My new Dr needs these in order for me to be seen. Being a company that handles such records should be more reliable and responsive. Is their anything else I can do to get my records?Business Response

On 6/1/2023 I requested a copy of my medical records. On 6/16/23 I received an email that they were ready. I was charged $6.50 to download my medical records. The document that was downloaded was only a copy of the medical record request form, with NO medical records included. When I called on 6/16 I spoke with *********, who would not give me a ticket number or any follow up number regarding the call or the issue, and actually said "I'm not going to give you a number because it wouldn't help you." I have worked in customer service before and this is the definition of abysmal customer service. As absurd as it was to pay $6.50 to NOT receive my medical records, the idea that there is a charge to receive MY medical records, to which I am entitled as the patient, electronically (no printing fee), is also insulting.Business Response

We reached out to the requestor and confirmed the receipt of her records. There was a technical issue with the downloading of records that has now been resolved. The call was reviewed with the customer service agent and they have been retrained.

I have been waiting to receive the medical records of my deceased husband from Verisma for two months now while initially I was told by the hospital staff that it would take 10 business days. I finally did receive a letter from Verisma with an Access Code but when I tried to enter it on their website it says that my request is CANCELLED. No other communication received from this company as to why this was cancelled and while I tried calling VERISMA at *************, it didn't get me anywhere since NO ONE ANSWERS THIS PHONE NUMBER.Horrible company and non-existing customer service.Business Response

Our company frequently requests medical records for our clients to submit as evidence in disability claims. One of the providers in our state recently began using Verisma as a third party records delivery system. We received and paid an invoice for a records request through Verisma and have copies of the paid invoices and transaction receipts. Once paid, the company states the records will be sent within 6 - 10 business days. It has been 28 calendar days since the invoice was paid and we still have not received the requested records nor any further communication. When entering the invoice number or the access code that Verisma supplies for tracking or checking the status of the records, their portal continually states it is an invalid code. When calling, the automated system states that the invoice cannot be found. We have called multiple times and waited on hold without ever reaching a representative. The automated system eventually just hangs up. We have sent multiple emails to their support email and have received no response. So, this company took our payment for records, then eliminated the invoice number and access code for the records and never sent the records.Business Response

We are working towards a resolution. I am waiting to hear back to ensure these records were received.Business Response
Date: 05/22/2023
Upon further review we confirmed that the requestor has received all the requested records that are available. A refund for the duplicate set of records she received has been requested and is in process. I have been in touch with the requestor and have advised of these updates.
We are also investigating what happened to avoid this in the future.
This matter is resolved.

Requested release of records on 2/17, using *********************'s portal. No response. Requested the release of records more recently, using the new Verisma system, and apparently they "haven't shown up on the system yet." Not just this, but the "tracking code" I was supposed to receive was not sent to me, nor have the Verisma representatives been able to help me. The Verisma requestor support center also did not help with this, as the email I input is "not in their system."Initial Complaint

Still waiting for Medical Records originally requested on September 16, 2022. They waited until November 2, 2022 to advise that they believed the authorization was improper because the "reason" box was not checked. This is not a valid reason not to honor the request and the reason was clearly "legal" since the requestor was a law firm. On November 2, 2022 per Versima's request the Authorization with the "legal" box check was faxed and we have confirmation of the fax being received. On November 17, we checked on the status and were told they did not have the request. We sent it again that same day, orally confirmed that they received it and were told a "rush" would be put on it. We called today, November 18, 2022 and were told it would take at least 30 days. This is a time sensitive situation and we will NOT receive the records within 3 months of the original request!?Business Response

I'm a paralegal and our firm has had trouble reaching Verisma regarding medical records requests. Our Office has called three times over the past two weeks and each time we waited for over AN HOUR and finally give up and hang up because we need to use our phones for other calls. We've sent two requests and one of the requests got rejected for a reason that does not make sense. We have always sent our request with a HIPAA and a signed power of attorney, but for some reason, it is not sufficient for this ONE case. We cannot even call Verisma to follow up and ask about the rejection or follow up on our second request because they do not EVER answer their phone. Horrible medical records service that just holds records hostage and prevents clients from receiving their records in a timely fashion.Business Response
