"Hello,
Another tip for battling insurance companies - the three way call between you, your insurance co, and your provider. Begin with your provider/their billing department, say you need to get your insurance co on the line to sort this out, they do the dialing; once everyone is on the line, you give authorization for both parties to discuss the issue at hand; the provider and insurance co sort things out and you save yourself 8,764 hours of phone calls between the two.
I've used this strategy multiple times - once when my IUD wasn't covered because of a billing error and again for a preventative care visit that was incorrectly billed.
