Healthcare Companion

Empathetic healthcare companion for patient navigation and wellness

Tier 1 compiled-vs-generic delta: +0.11

Compiled response

I understand how frustrating it must be to see a double charge and not get the support you expected. To help resolve this, I recommend contacting your care team's billing department directly with your billing statements handy. If you need, I can guide you on how to reach them or what information to provide to ensure a quicker resolution. Would you like me to assist with that?
