zoll life ves PAY FOR SOMETHING I WAS TOLD WAS COMPLETELY COVER BY INSURANCE pittsburgh pennsylvania

 I WAS VISITED BY A ZOLL EMPLOYEE WHILE RECUPERATING IN ICU THAT I MUST WEAR A ZOLL LIFE VEST WHEN I LEFT THE HOSPITAL. ON THE DAY OF MY SCHEDULED RELEASE, MY HEART SURGEON SAID HE AND THE HOSPITAL HAD BEEN WAITING FOR MY INSURANCE TO APPROVE PAYMENT. 

I INFORMED MY HEART SURGEON THAT I WANTED TO GO HOME AND BE DISCHARGED.  AFTER AN EXTRA 3 DAYS IN THE HOSPITAL, MY INSURANCE COMPANY AGREED TO PAY FOR THE ZOLL LIFE VEST. I WAS TOLD THAT MY INSURANCE COMPANY WAS GOING TO COVER THE COMPLETE COST OF THE ZOLL LIFE VEST. THIS WASN'T TRUE. HOWEVER I RECEIVED A BILL FROM ZOLL LIFE VEST FOR OVER 5,000. WHAT A RIP-OFF.

FURTHERMORE, THE PIECE OF EQUIPMENT IS CRAP.  IT CONSTANTLY GOES OFF FOR NO REASON.  USUALLY IT IS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT.  I WAS TOLD I HAD TO WAIT 90 DAYS BEFORE I COULD HAVE A PACE MAKER SURGERY.  I SENT THE PIECE OF s**t BACK BEFORE THE NINETY DAYS AND THEY STILL CHARGE ME.  I FACT THEY CALL ME A MONTH OR SO AFTER I RETURN IT ASKING ME IF I TURN OFF THE DEVICE BECAUSE THEY WERE NOT GETTING ANY READING.
