| I live in Virginia. My Dr. referred me to a specialist in same building. A few weeks later I get a bill of $50.64 from a Georgia company named HealthPort saying they transferred medical records for me. I never heard of them so tore up the bill. A few weeks later I got another bill from them admonishing me for not paying. Checked with my Dr. who said there is no charge for transfer of medical records when she refers me to a specialist and not to pay. I called HealthPort who said the Dr's practice would have to call them to cancel the bill. My Dr's office manager did call them and then told me the bill was cancelled. Today I get another bill from HealtPort. They know i am 70 years old and must think I have Alzheimers and will eventually pay them. This is a scam and this company is very shoddy. |

I received a bill back in Feb 2012 from Health Port which I did pay because I had asked for a copy of records through my hospital which I felt I had paid but just in case I hadn't i paid this company $29.47. Today I got a call from them again saying that I owed this amount. I said I know for sure I had paid this and probably twice at this point and she said they may have something wrong with their bookkeeping and would look into it. I feel this is a scam and a company trying to collect from people that forget months down the road or can't prove they paid prior. I looked all the way back at my statements and sure enough see a payment to HealthPort for $29.47 on February 21st.
When I told the lady that I felt that they are scamming people she told me she had a list she was going off of of unpaid bills from January 2012. I said well of course if you are calling off of a list from almost a year ago your going to be using old data!
Be careful and make sure you have not already paid these people! |
