(collectively “Defendants”) in the Superior Court of the State of Arizona (styled Sean Steven Hill v. Aetna Life Insurance Company and Chickering Claims Administrators, Inc., Case No. c20105017) alleging that defendants failed to fully and timely reimburse policyholders at contractually required rates for prescribed medications and that the Aetna policy is deceptive in that annual deductibles are waived for the benefit of Aetna but not for the benefit of the insured, according to class action lawsuit news reports.
The Aetna Life Insurance & Chickering Claims Administrators class action lawsuit complaint reportedly alleges that Aetna issued and underwrote student health insurance within Arizona through the Student Health Insurance Program offered by the University of Arizona providing medical expenses coverage for its policyholders, including prescribed medicine expenses, but allegedly denied claims in bad faith and in breach of contract.

This does not surprise me one bit! I am a medical assistant and claims processer for our office. Not only do they delay payments, they do not follow proper HIPPA policy regulations when requesting medical treatment notes for service dates. I have had to render two complaints this year for the same issue.
I even once had someone tell me during the phone conversation and I quote” Agent: well they denied the claim because medical notes are being requested. Me : why wasn’t this mentioned during the last two phones conversations? Agent: I am letting you know now. Me: There was no separete correspondance letter mailed out as it states on the EOB. Agent: Well our phone conversation is your letter. ”
Ummmmm yeah. Enough said 😐
Aetna is the worst insurance company I have ever had to deal with.They dilibertly denied my claim in order to avoid paying my claim.I was given misleading information and ridiculous poor service.The people are heartless that process claims for Aetna and need to be investigated ,shut down and put out of business.They have done a great disservice to the community and need to be closed down and put out of business.
I too am currently dealing with this monster. I had a mini stroke 7/12/2011 used my short term after jumping thru hoops, now dealing with long term some dude named mario…what a piece of work.
They mislead, lie an do anything within their power to not pay a claim.
I would love to see this company charged with fraud an just plain lying.
Just found out I have artery blockage behind my heart an all the stress of trying to get what I paid for is killing me.
