RECONCILE ALL BILLS received with your insurance paperwork from this company!!!

This relates to the Ogden Regional Medical Center (aka Mountain Star, aka NPAS, Inc). Specifically their billing practices and negotiated rates with insurance companies.

This company billed our insurance and our insurance processed (in-network). Being it is in-network, there are negotiated rates between the two companies. The processed paperwork from the insurance came back with the typical in-network footnote that specifically states Provider negotiated discount. You are not responsible for this amount. Mountain Star, however, expected us to cover the negotiated amount.

I paid the amount the insurance stated I was responsible for and discussed this concern with NPAS, Inc (Ogden Regional s billing center) four different times. I also spoke with the insurance company who stated the hospital was not allowed to bill us for negotiated discounts.

The negotiated amount we have been arguing over isn t big enough to get legal help fighting so we paid. Our circumstance could be a one off. I just hope others will double check. If there is a pattern emerge, legal options could be explored.
