Have you ever filed a complaint against your doctor?
I thought he was a nice guy but, in my opinion, he took advantage of me on my last visit and did an unnecessary procedure that he billed as "surgery" for a total of $675!!! I just called Blue Cross Blue Shield to get a complaint started. I'm nervous and hope I'm doing the right thing.
5. I do feel he was wrong but it's weird that I don't necessarily

want him to get in trouble or get him into bad standing with BCBS (even though he might deserve it). I just want my situation resolved so that's where the nervousness comes in.
I didn't complain to them first. I was going to just pay the bill but after I saw the way he put the claim in--it's like he knew that I would have to come out of pocket for the whole thing and he didn't care. The only thing I regret is not having had a new doctor already in place and having my records faxed over to the new doctor before filing the complaint.
And now I'm wondering if BCBS will use this against me as well.
it had nothing to do with billing and doc was not nice...I was in the middle of a very high risk pregnancy and her behavior was actually making things worse. I had an HMO at the time and they let me switch to another doc with them ..made her apologies to me.....and after the letter I got my butt kissed by the HMO and new doc....It was a horrible time I nearly lost my life and my sons ...
glad to say we both made it in the end but....not without some trauma.....and no thanks to her.
