What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Pennsylvania
When a medical provider is given insurance information and doesn't send claim to insurance company, is there a statue of limitations to how long they have to file the claim? A friend got collection notification regarding a medical bill and when they called CA to get date of service and provider's name, they then contacted Ins. Company and they agreed to pay but hospital refused to send claim. They want the consumer to pay the bill. Is this right? Someone mentioned that the provider had a certain amount of time to send claim.
