Fine if you never ask questions
tl;dr: Hart is use to dealing with old people on Medicare. If you need to ask questions or have working class insurance, DO NOT DEAL WITH THEM. McClaren sent us home with Oxygen from this company after my wife had COVID. Over four months, each time I called for supplies I begged to know how much this was going to cost and to get a bill sent to me. Each time I was told it was fully covered by my insurance. After two months, they told me we hadn’t signed the right paper but their solution was to have a driver bring it to us, but the drivers only come out during working hours. We’re a working family ourselves; that doesn’t work for us. Somehow they couldn’t figure out how to drop a piece of paper in the mail! Eventually they emailed it to us so that we could sign it, scan it, and email back. That process alone was [expletive] ridiculous! When we finally got a bill, we’d racked up $500 worth of costs that had not been covered as they assured me. We have insurance, but we live paycheck to paycheck and I can’t pull that kind of money out of thin air! Trying to stop their service requires a discharge evaluation with your doctor. Her doc books two months out! When I told them that also wouldn’t work for us and we couldn’t afford this service, they gave me a hard time but eventually said we could sign some kind of discharge waiver. Trying to schedule to have their equipment picked up was also frustrating. It took me telling them, “if you don’t get it by Friday, it’ll be on the porch.” My wife has tried to call to get the bill worked out, but she only gets call backs while we’re at work when we can’t take calls! The one time she got ahold of someone, she explained what we’d been told and that we didn’t have this kind of money. The biller said she’d talk to her supervisor and they’d get back to us. Two months later we got another bill and voicemails threatening to send us to collections. At this point, we welcome it! Debt collectors would be easier to work with!
