Never pay a fee you feel is incorrect! wait for ins to pay and see if there should be a write-off, if not and dr says it was a billing error, get it in writing from the Dr.

I paid the bill through my bank and later received an explanation that the charge was for a certain treatement used by the physcian. I had a later appoint with the physician and asked him for an explanation. He confirmed to me that their billing department (he practices with him a very large group) had billed me in error. Ever since, I have been stoned-walled. I have tried to have my insurance company recover the money. I have tried any number of times via phone and in person and, as always I get stoned-walled.

Is there a way through small claims court that I can possibly get regress? Please advise how I should proceed. Thanks in advance.

Short pay his next bill by $82 and let them sue you

It was my suggestion initially to Threaten Small Claims Court- NOT to actually file.

So, an empty threat?
