GARY PLEASE READ

I JUST CAN'T STOP BALLING. I JUST GOT A BILL FROM MY SURGEON FOR $500 GOING BACK TWO YRS AGO THEY HAVE BEEN BILLING AN INS. CO THAT I HAVE NOT HAD FOR THREE YRS. I DID NOT HAVE THIS INS EVEN 3YRS AGO WHILE THEY WERE BILLING THAT CO. I GUESS THEY FINALLY GAVE UP TRYING TO COLLECT. THIS IS NOT A MISTAKE OF THEIRS--THE INS REP AT THEIR OFFICE TOLD ME THAT SINCE I NO LONGER HAD INS THEY WOULD DO MY FILLS FOR $100. I PAID IN CASH AND KEPT THE RECEIPTS. THEY HAVE BEEN TRYING TO BILL THIS INS CO FOR FILLS THAT I HAVE BEEN PAYING FOR IN CASH. I AM SO ANGRY. THEY CHARGE 3X MORE FOR FILLS THAN ANYONE ELSE. AS MUCH FOR A FILL IN THE OFFICE AS IT COSTS UNDER FLOURO FOR MOST PPL!! AND I GUESS FIGURED THEY WOULD MAKE UP FOR THEIR "LOSS" WITH MY INS AND BILL ME IF IT FAILED. I HAVE NEVER ENCOUNTERED ANYTHING SO CRUEL AND CORRUPT--AT THIS POINT I MUST ASSUME MY SURGEON IS AWARE AND COMPLICIT IN ALL OF THIS EVEN THOUGH I'M STILL HOPING AGAINST HOPE THAT THIS IS AN ERROR. I HAVE NEVER FELT SO BETRAYED IN ALL MY LIFE. MY SURGEON HAS NEVER BEEN VERY NICE TO ME LIKE WITH HIS OTHER PATIENTS. THE TIMES I WENT TO HIM FOR ADJUSTMENTS HE WOULD FOLLOW ME TO THE CASHIER AND HOVER WHILE I PAID LIKE I WAS SOME DEADBEAT. I HAVE JUST DESPARATELY SEARCHED EVERY BIT OF PAPER FROM THEM AND OF COURSE CANT FIND THE RECEIPTS I SO CAREFULLY SAVED. SOMEBODY WITH SOME INDUSTRY KNOWLEDGE PLEASE HELP--ISN'T THIS DOUBLE BILLING OR FRAUD? I CAN' T BELIEVE THEY WOULD DO THIS. FOR THE LAST THREE YRS I'VE TRIED SO HARD TO IMPROVE MY FINANCIAL SITUATION AND STUFF LIKE THIS KEEPS HAPPENING. GOD, WHAT DID I DO TO DESERVE THIS **** STORM? DOES THE WHOLE WORLD HATE ME??????THANK YOU DR., FOR MAKING ME FEEL ABSOLUTELY W R E T C H E D
