    I had a screening at Gastro Health in ********, ** in May, 2022. I was double covered with insurance, yet I keep getting a bill for nearly $650 that was sent to a collection agency. Remember were ALL covered by law for a screening with the *************** Act as well for colonoscopy screenings. So, this should be a no brainer. Even with multiple calls (over 23) over these two years, have garnered two people admitting that it is a coding/billing error on their part, but it is still with the collection agency and again in review with Gastro Health. It is now on my credit report, but in dispute. I would like all of this to be settled, with my balance showing I owe nothing as well as my credit report adjusted.

    Hi ***** -

    T**** you for connecting on this matter. I understand your frustrations for the lengthy process that accompanies the healthcare billing system and apologies for the events that have culminated to this claim being sent to collections. I will escalate this claim review to our Billing Director to facilitate what we can do to resolve and revise the collection agency status.

    On Nov 13th I received a reply to this complaint from *** **** at Gastro Health. 
    He apologized for it taking 2 years to settle this claim. He stated that it was a billing coding mistake on the part of their staff and that the problem had been corrected. He stated that his staff would have some re training to avoid this problem in the future. He also stated that the credit reporting company would be notified to remove this information from my credit report.
    He was kind enough to send me an email verifying our conversation.
    So Im happy this problem has been fixed.
