I called Alliant Dermatology to see a Dermatologist for myself and my wife. I had checked earlier to see if Dr. Casper was a provider for UHC Advantage (The Villages Plan) Dr. Casper was on the list... so I tried to make an appointment with Dr Casper and we could not get in for several months as two new patients. They then asked if we would like to see Jennifer Davis PA.... and we said yes and were in to see this fine lady in a few days. Fast forward a few weeks, I get a notice of Denial of payment for both office visits and a procedure on my wife amounting to several hundred dollars. I call UHC and was told that Dr. Casper was affliliated with UHC advantage and Jennifer Davis is not... Not what kind of a deal is that...A PA working under a Doctor, in the same office one is covered by UHC and the other is not....I tried to find out if Alliant Dermatology was covered, but the answer I got was Casper is and Jennifer Davis is not... So Let the buyer beware..... Lesson learned I guess....
Anyone else aware of such a practice?
