How long may a medical provider take to submit a bill to your insurance company in NY?

Providers who are contracted with your insurance (aka participating or "in-network") have to follow the timely filing guidelines of the state they are licensed and provide services, which is typically 180 days from the date of service. I believe 180 days has been the case since 2002. However, you may be interested to know that if your insurance is through your employer and they are considered a national company the chances are your policy gives providers 12 months to file their claim. The good news for the insured is the state guidelines have precedence over a national policy, consequently, the provider has to get the claim in by 180 days, not 12 months. Be careful though, there are exceptions, therefore the best advice, as was written earlier, is to call the customer service office that handles your insurance.

Let me tell you what happend to me. I hope that this helps. I used to be covered by two insurance companies. My primary insurance company was through the company that I worked with. My secondary was with the company that my husband works with. When a claim was filed with my secondary insurance company they wanted to know how much my primary insurance company paid for and until then they would not pay anything. So I had to submit to my primary insurance company and once they paid some then the secondary would. I hope that this helped:) * Yes. A claim must always be made with the primary insurer first.
Is it illegal to release medical records to a car insurance company without consent of the patient?
At the clinic I work at, we have patients sign a release once a year allowing us to submit claims to their insurance company for the year. It doesn't specify which insurance company though. I would check with your clinic to see if you have signed something of the sort. And if not then it probably is illegal for your clinic to submit a claim without your permission.
