Wimbledon Health Partners

I contracted with Wimbledon Health Partners to perform nerve conduction testing for my patients. Every patient that they saw, I was told that each patient was fully covered and they would have no out of pocket expenses. Months later I have patients that are receiving bills from Wimbledon Health Partners ranging from $ 750.00 to $ 2500.00. This Company WILL verify all patients benefits but they WILL NOT notify and call the patient before the appointment to review financial responsibility. I would call before the patients appointments to get financial responsibility so I can notify the patients and the verification department NEVER told me that any of my patients had deductibles or financial payments that would be due. I would ask them if they where fully covered and they would state yes. As the patients bills started to come in, I would ask the patients if they signed any paperwork stating that they where financially responsible, they would ALL state no. Well come to find out when the patients would come in for the testing the Tech would have the patient electronically sing a form that would allow a doctor to read the testing result. The Tech NEVER told ANY of my patients that they where also signing off that they would be financially responsible for any bills.
Yes the patients signed off on paperwork that they didn’t read.
Yes the patients went ahead with testing that they where only given a verbal confirmation that they where fully covered.
Yes the patients and myself also trusted that Wimbledon Health Partners was a professional and ethical company.
This company will verify your benefits. Tell you that you are fully covered. Have the tech not disclose the complete reasoning for your signature, and then send you a bill and make you fully responsible for it ALL BECAUSE THEY KNOW PATIENTS WILL TRUST WHAT THEY SAY.
I highly recommend that if you need any type of testing just go to your primary care physician and get a referral and call your insurance company to get a provider that is in Network. This way you will be seen with a provider that has to follow your Insurance Companies guidelines.
