Thank you for the information. It does sound hopeful.

It’s been a struggle.

Subject: RE: HealthNet

 

We here have started receiving calls from HealthNet during the past two days and have been informed that they have hired an extra bunch of employees to target HHC to get authorizations caught up and get the billing brought to current.  I was doubtful after the first call because we have not had much luck in obtaining the authorizations timely and have yet to receive a payment on any claim.

 

I was however hopeful after the third call I received where they have questioned me on the status of the authorizations and whether or not payment has been received on the particular veteran they were calling about.  We have claims from as far back as July 2015.

 

I am very hopeful that one by one we will begin to see some action.

 

I spoke with a Christine, RN from there.  Her number is 814-534-4957 and she is the one who informed me of the extra staff added.  She also did follow up on my questions and concerns the very next day.  Christine also stated that they have added an escalation lin.  The number 866-606-8198, option #3.

 

Good luck all as we navigate this crazy maze!!

Morning,

Has anyone been paid from Health Net yet? If you are getting paid can you tell me what you are doing to get paid? Plus is anyone having any problems getting the authorizations thru Health Net?
