Health Insurance and Hospital?

I'm not quite sure how to say this w/o getting too deep into it,but there seems to be a Communication problem between Mount Sinai Hospital in Miami Beach and my Insurance company united american. They(the hospital) tell me they never get paid by my insurance Company and i have been back and forth between the two of them. Once Mount Sinai's business office sent me a correspondence saying my insurance company told them that i should pay the bill. I think the hospital is lying...anyone have any problems with this hospital when it comes to business etiquette and what came of it..what did you do about it. They don't have their heads screwed on right

    What you need to do is collect all the bills from the hospital. Compare that to all the payments that the insurance made. Review what the insurance paid and did not pay. If you still have questions, you can ask your insurance or the hospital, depending what side the question is on.

    For most people, insurance does not pay 100% of the bill. Maybe the hospital is saying the insurance paid their portion but we still need your portion.

    Your problems is likely not the hospital. Google United American Rip Off and see how many hits you get.

    You'll need to go to the hospital and sit down with them and go over the charges. You'll also want to take your EOB that you receive from the insurance company to compare it with the charges from the hospital. I'd say talk with your agent but most likely that agent isn't with them anymore.

    You need to call your insurance company, and ask for the explanation of benefits form.
