Question

I received medical care and paid for the services up front. The health care provider submitted it to my insurance, but didn't tell them i had already paid. My insurance paid the provider. The provider then wrote a check to my parents, because the original payments to them were paid from my parent's account. Am I correct in thinking that the check should have come to me in the first place .. in my name from my insurance company ... and the health care provider should have never gotten paid by my insurance or sent it to my parents ... What is my next step if my parents won't give me back the money? Thanks

Accepted Answer

The provider shoud have reimbursed you, not your parents. Your parents should return the money to you if it was wrongly paid to them. The provider at the very least should assist in this regard to avoid a litigation by you against the provider for its misconduct, and your parents for refusing to return monies wrongly held.
