I am delighted that it has worked out for you.

I agree, keep up with the status making SURE they are paying for it. Get names of the people that are paying the claims or the person who is handling your calls.

That sucks BIG TIME! You should get some sort of help!

Whoohoooo!!! I called on my lunch break today and got bounced around for a bit in their automated system. When I finally got to a real person, I explained what I had gotten in the mail, and the whole situation. The man was very kind and aplogized for the scare. Apparently, the ER doctor failed to mention in his report that I was having an extreme reaction to medication when I came in! /img/smilies/rant.gif  So it appeared to my insurance that I had gone to the ER for a simple infection that could easily have been taken care of by other means. The guy apologized, assured me that the bill would be paid in full, and that there would be no further trouble! /img/smilies/big_smile.png/img/smilies/wee.gif

F.Y.I. Many automated systems will pass you to a person if you just dial "0". It doesn't always work, but it's always worth a try.

Glad to hear that your dilemma seems resolved. Things like this can happen with non-emergency stuff too. My doctor once sent me for chest x-rays (was having some shortness of breath, turned out to be nothing). Anyway, a few months later I start getting bills for several hundred dollars for the x-rays cause supposedly my insurance wouldn't pay for them. Turns out it was because at the time I was a smoker, and someone along the line had coded the x-rays as a MENTAL HEALTH condition because I was trying to quit smoking. It took many phone calls and several in-person visits to the doctor's office to get it fixed. I finally got ahold of a girl who took all of 2 minutes to fix it.

Try to get a statement from the ER doctor stating that it was indeed an emergency.
