PHD Palm Harbor Palm Harbor Dermatology Defrauded myself and my Railroad Retirement Medicare Fund....in which I filed a fraud report with them.was told ofc visit would be $50.00 and procedure would be $100.00...that was all I was willing to pay. They billed RRMedicare $843.78 Palm Harbor Florida
They defauded me and my Railroad Retirement Medicare.
Stated that my office visit would be $50.00...and would bill my RR Med that amount. Instead they billed them $192.80. for 10 min. I did not authorize that amount.
Told them to remove my skin tags. I was only going to pay $100.00 cash, so don't do anything more than that amount. They did all of these extra tests that they say amounted to $650.98 and billed my RR Medicare, for which I did not authorize.
Now they say I owe $150.44 and sent it in to collections.
They must be stopped. I filled out a report to my Railroad Retirement Medicare a letter of fraudulent practices made by them.

If you think a charge is incorrect and you know the provider, you may want to call their office to ask about it.
The person you speak to may help you better understand the services or supplies you got. Or, your provider may realize a billing error was made.
If you've contacted the provider and you suspect that Medicare is being charged for a service or supply you didn't get, or you don't know the provider on the claim, call 1-800-MEDICARE.
When you get health care services, record the dates on a calendar and save the receipts and statements you get from providers to check for mistakes. These include the "Medicare Summary Notice" (MSN) if you have Original Medicare, or similar statements that list the services you got or prescriptions you filled.
Have this information before you report fraud:
Fighting fraud can pay up to $1,000
You may be eligible for a reward of up to $1,000 if all of these 5 conditions are met:
For example, you didn't participate in the fraud offense being reported. Or, there isn't another reward that you qualify for under another government program.
The incentive reward can't exceed 10% of the overpayments recovered in the case or $1,000, whichever is less. If multiple individuals qualify for a reward, the reward is shared among them. If you want to know more about the Incentive Reward Program, call 1-800-MEDICARE.
