You need to hire an experienced contract negotiator/provider relations coordinator for your facility. You'll also need someone proficient and certified in ICD-9 and CPT coding, as well as experienced medical claims billers and a billing coordinator.\n\nWhere are you located? What state...each state has some different laws in regard to insurence billing for medical claims. I personally have eight years experience in this field.

I definately agree with you, they should see their physician. But HOLD ON! before you start going against them, you also have to see the medical insurance is very high, and it is NOT going to STOP! it will geek on going higher. The reason I said this is almost HALF of all the people in America does NOT have Health Insurance. Right there, thats serious. Plus they have to pay certain amount just to get a visit to their clinic(If the have insurance) if they DON'T have insurance, they should go to webmd.com. That site is very good. But yes, i do agree with you on shortnessof breath. that is an exception as well as heart related symptoms. Getting some answers here helps them get some feed back on what are some possible causeof their pain. if it was VERY serious (physiologically) then they wouldn't be able to type their question in the first place, instead they would dial 911. But I applaud you for bringing this question(Yes, it is a serious question).

Any visit to the doctor's office usually results in a co-pay.  They might have been nice and doing it for free for a ling time.  Do understand that medical liability insurance is very costly, someone had to schedule an appointment for you and update your file after your blood pressure check.

I think you should talk to your Dr. for the benefits.  They may be able to alleviate some of your problems you're now having, but they HAVE to explain it to you.  Dr.'s are your employees, you are going to them for their expertise in this area.  Of course it's reasonable that you have questions. \n\nGood luck with everything.

Are you moving because your company wants you to work in the US? If so, the company probably has a health plan for its US workers. US health care, unlike almost any other nation, has an employer-provided model of health insurance – most insured Americans have health insurance through work. It’s much less expensive than buying it on your own. As for the pre-existing condition, most plans have a 12-month waiting period, or exclusionary period, for such conditions. In addition, some plans exclude hernias in the first six months of a plan – even if you don’t have a history of having hernias – unless it’s an emergency.\n\nSo, your hernia shouldn’t stop you from getting insurance, but you might have to wait until your insurance covers hernia surgery. After the first waiting period, though, you should be fine.\n\nIf you still have questions, try visiting MostChoice.com. It’s a health insurance Web site that has instant online price quotes and plan details. But it also has a network of licensed insurance agents who can answer any health insurance questions you might have. Just fill out a form, review the online price quotes, and within two days agents should contact you to talk about insurance to cover your hernia and how long you can expect to wait until the insurance will help you pay for the surgery. There’s no cost or obligation. Just wait until one of the agents delivers the insurance policy that’s right for you.\n\nYou can visit MostChoice here: http://www.mostchoice.com/health-insurance.cfm\n\nHope this helps,\n\nBarnes @ MostChoice.

Certainly people should understand that others can not afford decent insurance. Some hospitals offer programs that you can sighn up for. Most programs may go by a sliding scale fee, others just ask for a payment plan to be followed.

Colleges and Universities often offer health fairs for their students.  Students don't have much money, but the staff and faculty do.  Call some schools (it'd be the student services office) and ask them to let you know when they are having their next fair.\n\nPersonnel departments of many businesses also offer wellness clinics for their employees.  Do some research and find the places that offer benefits for "alternative medicine" because a lot of insurance still thinks of chiropractic services as alternative.  But, some policies do cover it, so I'd target the companies that offer the benefit because if it's a covered service employees are more apt to take advantage of your services.

It's becoming a way of life anymore.  The insurance rates for employees is out of this world so they are testing before they ask for a second interview.  Those tests are expensive, $50 per pop.  So, they are serious about who they have working for them.  I'd stick with a company that cares that much, they will be fair and easy to work with.\nGood luck!  Hope you get the job you want!

You need to contact insurance agencies that sell Work Comp policies to employers.  Call some of the larger businesses in your city, especially factories and such that have a large number of employees and ask them which company administers their Work Comp.  From there, contact the administering agency and tell them you'd like to be added as an approved doctor.  If they agree, then they will contact their clients and have you added to their Panel of Physicians.  This panel lists several doctors to choose from when an employee is injured on the job.  Most panels have 1 or 2 doctors from each field, meaning, General Physician, Chiropractor, Orthopedist and such.  Hope this helps!

I am a paramedic and have to deal with Malpractice lawsuits from patients on a regular basis.  This is not due to a lack of patient care on my part, but more that the individual is looking to make a quick buck.  The health care system is here to help and I promise you that the medical professionals that work in the system are not making a fraction of what your insurance pays.  The small private clinics, like the one you went to, are a gray area.  You should talk with the Podiatrist and share your concerns with them and find out why he provided you with the care that they did.  If in the long run, you decide to sue, make sure the money your asking for is appropriate and dont pull that "mental anguish" crap.  Medical professionals are only human and cannot be expected to be perfect.

I don't know about that, but around here, they usually put a big ad in the paper. Be sure to include what insurance companies you accept, and what you specialize in. There are so few doctors here that accept new patients that the ad is usually enough.\nGood luck to you---I hope you are in it for caring & not money!!

Maybe you could read messages from family and friends to some of the patients. Also it might be fun to interview some of the staff. One tip for a boring guest is to get them off topic. Ask the accountant about the cafeteria food or ask the janitor what's new in the gift shop. If there's a pediatric department, bring in little kids and ask them to sing.
