Uh, you said 60 cents, right? [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Yes. [CUSTOMER][POSITIVE] OK, thank you. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Um, [AGENT][NEGATIVE] And it looks like there were 4 procedures that were done. They were denied because they're not on the schedule of benefits, so they're not listed on the schedule as something that is covered. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. Uh, what are these codes? [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Let me check. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] OK. It looks like code 0367. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Mhm. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Mhm. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] 0350. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Mhm.

Uh, did you put attention to [PII]? [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] With uh [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Oh, I'm so sorry. I thought your name was [PII]. Is it [PII]? [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] It's [PII]. [AGENT][POSITIVE] Uh, OK, I'm so sorry. I put it as [PII]. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] [PII]. Oh, no, it's fine, uh, [PII]. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Mhm. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK, I just need to uh verify something else. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] For this patient or a different patient? [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Mm [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Uh, this patient, give me one second. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] OK. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK, so initially what happened is that uh this claim was processed out of network. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] And again, we don't do networks. This plan does participate in the Carrington network, but it's not a requirement as long as the services that were done are services that are covered under their policy, we honor that policy. Uh, it just looks like they had a few that weren't covered. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Right. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] So yeah, we, we will pay whether it's in network or out of network. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] But you are sure this uh this claim is processed on the Carrington fee schedule? [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Yes. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Uh, but you also said that it doesn't matter, you're going to process it anyway, right? Uh whether the provider is in or out of network? [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Yeah [AGENT][POSITIVE] Right, we will honor it as long as it's a procedure that's covered under their policy. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] You mean for this type of policies? [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Um, for this policy, yes. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Um [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] And how much is the total allowed amount on the claim? [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Is it the same uh payment, 2 $10.60? [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Yes, so they go by the fee schedule, so it's percentage of allowable, um, and it looks like. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Mhm. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Let me pull it up. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] For the FMX and basic and basic restorative expenses, it's at 80%. If it's a preventative expense, it was up to 100%. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Yeah. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] So, uh, FMX and comprehensive exam are covered under the basic. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Yes. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Under the 80%. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] 80%. OK, but they should have been covered at preventative service, right? Uh, because there are preventative services, preventative procedure codes. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Right, those are at 100% of what Carrington, their fee schedule. [CUSTOMER][MIXED] OK. But they process 80% basic, right? [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Right. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. Is it uh because it's covered at 80% initially or uh because the provider is out of network? [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Uh, that is the original coverage of the of the quotes. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Oh, [AGENT][NEUTRAL] It would be percentage of what was under that network. So let me see. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] So the one that was. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] So the procedure code. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Uh 0150, it looks like we paid 80% of that. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Mhm. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Mhm. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] 0210 we paid 80% of that. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] that expense. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] And then the other codes were not. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. Is this the original? [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Mhm. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Right. Uh, so is 80% the original coverage of these two quotes, comprehensive exam of FMX, uh, under the Carrington fee? [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Yes. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Yes. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] All right. uh, thank you so much, [PII], but uh I haven't received the fax copy for the first patient though. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Uh, but you said it went through, right? [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Yes. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Yes, it did go through. Let me double check. Yes. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. Uh, just to be sure, can you send it one more time? [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Give me just a moment. Um, I will need to pull that back up, so give me just a moment. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK, my desktop and my in the same. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] What time it be. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] OK, give me one moment while I look that up. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] The soon that office and with workers. This so you are locked in at [PII] in my practice stay consistent. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] I have been discussing with this. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Uh, it looks like I just resent that fax and I put attention [PII] and the policy number on it. [CUSTOMER][POSITIVE] OK. Thank you so much, [PII]. That'll be all for today. Bye-bye and take care. [AGENT][POSITIVE] Great, thank you for calling APL. Have a great day. [CUSTOMER][POSITIVE] Thank you.
