Review of Tri-City Medical Center

This review is for the billing department. Neither...

This review is for the billing department. Neither Tri-City nor their subcontracted physicians' billing services submit bills with the correct modifier code to the insurance companies. Bills constantly get sent to collection or bounce back to me, and then I have to make calls to my insurance, to Tri-City, to doctors, to billing departments, for YEARS before a bill is resolved. It becomes a nightmare, over and over again. I am not sure what is quite so difficult about medical coding or putting the correct modifier on the code to make sure that the claim is not always rejected by my insurance, but I do not work in the medical field, and can you tell by this post that I know way too much about this for a total outsider?
