Hi Strick, You can contact customer service at the number on your ID card and they can take a look at why you've received this bill. ~ Kayla
Had back surgery at Mem Herman MC in Houston in Feb., 2018. Today in May 2019 I received their statement for $1000 for coverage you disallowed under my Supplemental. I have no prior knowledge of this nor any info as to why you disallowed. Meanwhile I recall last year BCBSTX had over one billion USD’s in reserves. Otherwise Supplemental has been fine. In my 4 yrs of retirement, you have discontinued RX coverage on 50 pc of my drugs, both statins, which I have replaced via a doctor’s visit with pseudo genetics. A costly nuisance in time. All my doctor friends tell me they prefer dealing with United Healthcare the best. Hmmmm.
I am a BCBSFL retiree living in Texas. Florida Blue gives me a partial reimbursement of the cost of my Medicare supplement provided that I buy it from BCBSTX. I currently have Plan F. I recently priced the plan with another company and was shocked to find it more than $50 per month less from the other company (USAA). Considering the plan is exactly the same no matter who I buy it from, how do you justify your price?
