Richard R Abe DPM

Used my HMO insurance to go have my foot surgery. Surgery was good and my insurance cover for it. However a week later I received a bill from Andrew Harrison for $ 250. I called the office and was told he’s the assistant to dr Abe who help with the surgery. I never once was told of this nor saw this assistant’s face. I told them they need to bill insurance not me and the rude lady from Andrew Harrison’s office said they can’t because insurance approved under dr Abe. Well duh! I called insurance and they said they will take care of this and I don’t need to pay. Well today I got another bill demanding the $ 250 and a note that they are billing insurance for $ 900 in pending status. This is insurance fraud! Insurance have a contractual agreement and they pay up to the allowable limit. This office is trying to get money from the member so they will be paid 100%. Well it does not work that way! I will be calling my insurance company and reporting how a $ 250 bill now turns out to $ 1,150 for insurance fraud.
