[CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK, 1 2nd. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] It'll upload your policy document and you can view all your benefits there to see what to file for. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Let's see. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK, my coverage. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Mhm. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. Why is this to the labs. [CUSTOMER][POSITIVE] Exactly. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] What does it say? [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] So that's it. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Um, on the cover attendants, this is [PII] she likes lap. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] OK, do you see [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] The med links like group med. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Yeah, that is your older policy that was active from [PII] to [PII]. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Uh, [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Then [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Then there is an active policy, which you should see under policy number 247. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] 2975 that started on [PII]. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Yes. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Which is uh [AGENT][NEUTRAL] So if you, if you need an updated card, you can get that updated card for that active policy. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] New Year. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. Yes. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK, OK. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] No [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Those, yeah, mhm, and if you click on the policy number. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK, I see it. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Then [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Yeah. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] If you go in your policy, it's going to be. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Mhm, I see. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Um, [AGENT][NEUTRAL] In the policy, there's a page called a schedule of benefits page. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Section certification schedule. [CUSTOMER][POSITIVE] Exactly. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Definition [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Mhm you should see a page called the schedule of benefits page. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK, not yet. I can termination of coverage. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Section 9 claim. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] APL. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] American public. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Schedule of benefits, yes. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Mhm. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] And that will show you what is covered and also the benefit amount that we could pay. Now, with this being your secondary policy, it will depend on what your primary insurance pays towards your deductible, co-pay, or co-insurance. That's what this policy pays towards. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Who is your primary insurance with? [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Blue Cross and Blue Shield I Cuba. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Oh [AGENT][NEUTRAL] OK. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] So, I know that Blue Cross Blue Shield of Florida has what's called a health statement, H E A L T H statement. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] H E A L. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] The each statement. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] And with that health statement, [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] I don't think I've ever seen that. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] You can upload that directly on your. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Portal [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] And so with this secondary policy, we also always have to have the diagnosis code. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] The procedures and charges and what's applied to your deductible, co-pay or co-insurance. And on the Florida Blue, I'm not sure if Blue Cross or Blue Shield of Cuba has that listed. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Uh-huh. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] I, I've never seen it. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Yeah. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] So if they don't, we will still have to have the explanation of benefits from them for each data service. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] And then we'll have [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] From the insurance company or? [AGENT][NEUTRAL] From, from Blue Cross. Yes, ma'am. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] From the grass. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Uh, OK. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] And then if they do not have a diagnosis code or procedure code listed, we'll have to have an itemized bill from the facility. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] You said you had, did you have surgeries on your hand? [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Yeah, I had surgery on [PII]. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Been going through therapy for a while. I went to the emergency room one night. [AGENT][POSITIVE] Oh, bless your heart. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] And um I had so much.

[CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Yeah, I'm still going to, oh yeah. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Hm. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Yeah, the last 3 years have been nothing but.

[AGENT][NEUTRAL] And [AGENT][POSITIVE] Oh my gosh. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] [PII], 2024 until now. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Well, I'm [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] It is no joke. [AGENT][NEGATIVE] I, I was thrown off a horse and hurt my back and I'm. [AGENT][NEGATIVE] You know, that all I had to do is go through therapy and, and I know what that constant pain feels like. And you can't think, you just can't move. It just [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Oh [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Uh two herniated discs. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] It just makes you want to sit, sit down and be a just, just a nothing, doesn't it? Just don't move. [CUSTOMER][NEGATIVE] Some days, some days you can't even function. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Exactly. That's fine. [CUSTOMER][POSITIVE] OK, thank you so much. [CUSTOMER][POSITIVE] It, uh, and luckily that I can. [AGENT][NEGATIVE] I have been through a misery like that, so. [CUSTOMER][POSITIVE] Oh my [PII]. You know, thank [PII] I'm working from home, so. [AGENT][POSITIVE] Oh, that's good. [CUSTOMER][POSITIVE] That alleviates some of the really problem that I could have had because in the office I wouldn't be able to apply cold um press or what whatnot so I'm thankful that I have that. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Yeah. [AGENT][NEGATIVE] And then with that pain and having to drive with the pain. [AGENT][POSITIVE] Oh, I'm glad that's such a blessing you're able to work at home. [CUSTOMER][POSITIVE] Exactly. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Yes. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Yeah. [AGENT][POSITIVE] That's great, um. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Yes, uh, [AGENT][NEUTRAL] So with [AGENT][NEUTRAL] If you, if the [PII]. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Explanation of benefits from [PII] Blue. If it does not have the diagnosis code. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] And the CPT codes, which are the procedure codes, we will need an itemized bill from the facilities and let me ask you, are you, do you still owe them or have you already paid them in full? [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [CUSTOMER][POSITIVE] Oh yes. Oh yes. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] If you still owe them, you can give them your policy information. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Mhm [AGENT][NEUTRAL] As a secondary policy. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] And they can file claims with us and we can pay them direct. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] And that way you don't have to. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] I would like to pay them because. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] OK. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Sometimes what they do, like, let's say for instance, the last um surgical center that I went to where they did the um [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] epidural. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Mhm. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK, I had to pay out of pocket up front. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] $350 was um the difference my 20% um deductible that I had to pay. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Yeah. [AGENT][POSITIVE] Well, this course is gonna help. [CUSTOMER][NEGATIVE] And um I'm still getting bills. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] I'm still getting bills from them, so I'm a, I'm like, wait a minute, I pay this. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Right. [CUSTOMER][NEGATIVE] And now they're sending me bills. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Yeah, if you, if you file the claims and then we reimburse you, then you can keep up with everything that, you know, you I, I understand you got to stay on top of it, on top of it with those medical bills because. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Right. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Yeah. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Just when I'm done with you, I'm gonna call all of them. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] I [AGENT][NEUTRAL] And ask them. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Yeah. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] And you, the physical therapy is covered too under your policy. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Mm. [CUSTOMER][NEGATIVE] Oh my God, I pay $35 every time I go. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] So [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Well, that's covered also. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] 3 times a week for 3 weeks. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] we [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Oh, [AGENT][NEUTRAL] We need to get that reimbursed for you also. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK, I'm gonna call them and just, oh yeah, OK. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] So [CUSTOMER][POSITIVE] Oh, I feel so much better. [AGENT][POSITIVE] I'm so glad. Now on your policies, you know, one of those did you have anything prior to April the first? [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Of last year. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Uh, I was going to, um. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Well, not really. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Other than, you know, my regular routine checkups, um, and stuff like that. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] OK, so your checkups are the routine, um. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Actually, anything in a doctor's office is not covered unless it's cancer treatment. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] So as, if you're looking. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK then no I did. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Yeah, if you're looking on that schedule of benefits you see you've got your emergency room. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] You've got an urgent care facility, outpatient surgery, diagnostic testing. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Yes. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] If it was performed in a hospital outpatient facility or an MRI facility. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Outpatient, yeah. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Yeah. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Um, you have physical therapy. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] You don't have a MRI, do you? [AGENT][NEUTRAL] If it is [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] You don't cover MRI. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Was it performed in a doctor's office or did you go to like a hospital or a diagnostic? [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Center [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] They have, um, they have their own diagnostic center, but in the same building. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] We would, um, [AGENT][NEUTRAL] It's gonna depend on how they bill it when we get that itemized bill. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] From them [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [AGENT][POSITIVE] When you call to get those itemized bills, let me tell you exactly what to ask for and it's gonna help you a lot. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Um, when you call them, just tell them that you have this secondary policy and you need either. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Yes. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] A U as umbrella. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] B as in Bravo, 04, that's UB04 or. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Mhm. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Mhm [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] C as in Charlie.

[CUSTOMER][POSITIVE] OK. I'm gonna get them right now. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] That way. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] They'll either give you, they should give you either that UBO4 or CMS 1500. The physical therapy facility should give you the CMS 1500, but just when you call them, tell them that you either need the UBO4 or CMS 1500, and then that way, [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [AGENT][POSITIVE] You've got it covered what to ask for. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK, and I'm gonna tell them to go ahead and bill you guys, but we do not pay them because. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Well, if they [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Some of those, I [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Yeah, if they send us the claims now, um, Ms. [PII], we're gonna pay them. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] So if you want the payment benefit payments to come to you, then that's why you're gonna call and request those forms from them and then you're gonna call the Blue Cross Blue Shield and get those explanation of benefits for each data service. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Oh this [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Uh-huh. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] And then you can upload it on the portal. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] But then, um, I could get the EOBs. Would you accept the EOBs from um Blue Cross and Shields? [AGENT][NEUTRAL] If they have the diagnosis codes and procedure codes listed. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Now, your diagnosed, see, I'm not sure about the Blue Cross Blue Shield of [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Oh, OK. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Cuba. I know the Florida Blue has health statements, and those health statements do include the diagnosis codes. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Yeah. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Mhm. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] But I'm not sure about the Blue Cross explanation of benefits. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK.

[CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] For those data service, if they don't ask them if they have an explanation of benefit with diagnosis codes. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] With diagnosis. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] That's where I would start. And if they don't have the explanation of benefits with diagnosis codes. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] You're still gonna need those explanation of benefits, but you'll have to go further to the providers, to the hospitals, to your physical therapy facilities, um, to get the CMS 1500 or the UBO4. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Yes. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK, I will do that. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Now that's the documents that we need to process a claim. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] And then when you have those documents on your computer, save them to your computer. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] And then you can upload it on the portal. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Yes. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Automatically it will upload on that portal. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Yes. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] And when you're doing that there's options you can choose to have those benefits go directly to your bank account via direct deposit. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] I think you can um there's. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Is there a place here where I can actually upload my bank information or? [AGENT][POSITIVE] There is a place um I believe it's gonna be on your payment options up top. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK, oh yeah, it says set up direct deposit. [AGENT][POSITIVE] Yeah, you can go ahead and set that up. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] You don't have to wait till you file the claims. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK.

[AGENT][NEUTRAL] But at least you can, you know, submit those claims online and you can view your policies to see what's covered and if you need that new card. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] For your new policy you can print that new card out to. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Yes ma'am. [CUSTOMER][POSITIVE] Oh perfect. OK. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] So in the future, when you go for medical assistance is something that's covered under your policy, or even if you don't remember if it's covered or not, always show your APL card with your, your Blue Cross Blue Shield card. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] And then they'll they can file claims and we can pay them direct and you shouldn't. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Directly. [AGENT][NEGATIVE] Yeah, and then whatever you pay out of pocket should be less. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Yeah. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] It just depends on what your Blue Cross Blue Shields applies to your deductible or co-insurance. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Yes. [AGENT][POSITIVE] Now I know you're probably sitting there with a lot of questions and I'm ready to answer what you got. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] No, no, um, my boss just sent me an email.

And just uh tell them that you need either the UBO4 or the CMS 1500. They'll just give you one. Yeah, the UBO4 is for facilities like hospitals. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Yeah, yes. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] 4, OK. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] And the CMS 1500 is for like physical therapy or it might even include your MRI. I'm not sure what they bill on, but the providers always either bill on a UBO4 or CMS 1500. So that's why I said it's just always best to ask them for either or. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Yes. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Either UBO4 CMS 1500. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] I will do that. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] And then you got it covered.

[CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Oh my God. I've never had so much pain. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Uh, you know, that's what I told my daughter. I said, childbirth was easier than this back pain.

[CUSTOMER][NEGATIVE] That you can't read. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] And you try to stay in that position, and the more you stayed in that position, the cramps gets harder and longer. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Mhm. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Right. [CUSTOMER][NEGATIVE] Oh my God. No. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Are you still going to physical therapy? [CUSTOMER][NEGATIVE] Um, right now I ran out of money. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Yeah, that's. [CUSTOMER][NEGATIVE] I ran out of money. $35 every, every time I go, I used to go 3 times a week. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Mhm. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] And [CUSTOMER][NEGATIVE] I exhausted everything I had and all the medication, and when you see the doctor, you have to pay a co-pay. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] All right. So, does she, do you still have a deductible for your um Blue Cross Blue Shield for physical therapy? [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] It's crazy. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Um, [CUSTOMER][POSITIVE] I think I'm pretty much caught up. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] With, with that. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] But they, did they still charge a copay for your physical therapy? [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] But [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Uh, I always, um, pay, we always pay every time we go. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] So you know this policy covers your physical therapy. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] And it's a per calendar day benefit. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Of $300 that we can pay copay or deductible or co-insurance. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Uh-huh. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] For physical therapy. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] So if you call, if, if you're gonna call uh Blue Cross Blue Shield, ask them if you started up your physical therapy. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Yes ma'am. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Again [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Ask them if they would if they would cover in a plot, you know, if it would be covered. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Mhm. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] And if they would apply anything to your deductible or co-pay or co-insurance for your future physical therapy benefits, you know, uh. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] Future physical therapy appointments? [AGENT][NEUTRAL] And if they say yes, then you know your APL has those benefits available for you. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Yes. [CUSTOMER][POSITIVE] Yes ma'am, thank you so much. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] So we could possibly cover your, your co-pay for your physical therapy. I mean, I can't guarantee payment until we have the claim on file, but your benefits are on your policy and that physical therapy is probably gonna help you. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Yes ma'am. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] Right. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. [CUSTOMER][NEUTRAL] OK. OK. [AGENT][NEUTRAL] I just want you to get better cause I know how bad it hurts. [CUSTOMER][POSITIVE] Yes, ma'am.
