I know already why to stay away from DSNP, I didn't learn that fast enough. So I don't need to stay away from DSNP feedback. I already am going forward.
Heres an issue I'll have to deal with tomr, when I'd rather be stirring up better biz.
Lady calls, shes on Humana DSNP. Obviously has medicaid which becomes secondary payor and picks up the rest yada yada.
She was getting her incontinence supplies just fine for months. Then all of a sudden that company sends her a bill for over $200.
I called Humana, was transferred 3 times to wrong dept. Finally, get a seemingly more knowledgeable rep on the phone. She puts me on hold and calls the DME company. She comes back and literally calls DME company rep she talked to a "fricken ***" TWICE (true story I thought wtf, this is recorded line..laughed out loud--I'd prob get my ass handed to me for being unprofessional).
Humana Rep said it was medicaid's fault. Michigan Medicaid and mind you there's like 6 carriers in this area..says they quit using the DME company and won't pay them. The $200 plus bill was "cleared" so client won't be responsible. DME company supposedly eating it.
This was all Friday afternoon, and 45 mins so far. The Humana Rep then put me on hold again, said she was calling Michigan Medicaid, then when she came back said Nothing resolved, that I have to call Medicaid with the client bc they refuse to talk to her and won't talk to me....need to do this with the client present. So far now, no resolution this was ended after 5pm friday, going to pick it up tomr.
That's where it was left. I'm still very new at this, but not new with calling all necessary avenues to get to the bottom of an issue...thats a given no matter what line of biz, but wth. I've never had to deal with Medicaid this way...but I'll do it, no choice.
Any ideas would help. So many of these reps and whatnot get things wrong. Anyone know of an easier way to handle this. Bc even though they fixed the bill and that's not a thing. I still need to figure out who is responsible for her DME. Medicaid I'm pretty sure, but kind of confused.
DSNP/MAPD, yep....ugh...steer clear...very clear.
