Thanks Steve,

So basically we can bill the patient for the full amount, but my client will probably go ahead and adjust the balance, instead of upsetting the patient {and the patients doctor who referred them to the diagnostic center as well as many other patients}.

I also have other Insurance companies United Health Care & CIGNA {that we are not contracted with yet} who have hired Concentra and Multi plan to negotiate payment on all of the unpaid claims we have with them. They are paying 80% of billed charges so we have agreed to this. But it has taken several months for them to come back to pay these claims.

So here is my question, are all of the Insurance companies that we don't have contracts with going to try and negotiate a payment on each claim like UHC & CIGNA are, or will they just deny payment like Universal Health Care did.

Thanks
