HELP !!!!!!!! Health Insurance Problems?

I gave birth to my daughter, my insurance was at Oxford and my daughter was on Medicaid. The Hospital will pay for me and my daughter both Oxford and Medicaid. The pediatrician I have ever seen, I assumed when I saw my daughter was born did not bill Medicaid, and sent me to collections. I had no knowledge of it, I never gave any information about me, but I know I'm discovering that she has taken and sent me to the collection. Is not it against the law to bill the patient the full amount if the patient had insurance at the time. it was she who did not receive the correct information, because I never met this doctor and talked to her.

No, it is against the law to bill the patient. It is the responsibility of the patient to ensure that the supplier have the right information, and if the plan denies the charge invoice for any reason decide to, the claim becomes the responsibility of the patient to be treated. (Generally, sign documents to that effect before the provision of services.) In a hospital, an entity is independent and can (and do) bill separately. This include the hospital, the laboratories involved in the case of a newborn: the obstetrician-gynecologist, pediatrician and any house, which reviews the child. In the case of a newborn born, the hospital bills are covered, but pediatricians bills are sometimes a struggle. Generally, a bill in the plan of the mother, because newborns are technically insurance covered the mother id # for the first thirty days of life. Regardless of whether you provided your information directly to a supplier or not, probably provided with it by the hospital-That 's common. I'm a little confused about how you're just discovered they have charged for it – Unless your contact information is incorrect or the provider sends ignored nothing. (It happens – especially if a name is not recognized.) What you should do is call Oxford and ask them to reconsider the application, because his daughter was under thirty days of age at the time of service. If they do not reconsider the claims – that the policy Oxford is, in general, if the baby is not added to the plan, who do not pay. (Unless you're in New Jersey, then they have to pay.) In this case, call the office medical billing and provide Medicaid – there is almost always a timely filing limit for Medicaid.
