Then I feel for her…end of the day we all only go to work cause we have to.
My GF used to work for a company that provided in home care and facilities for the elderly, there were people whose job it was to phone up families and basically say “I know <relative> died last week but you owe us this money/equipment…”. That mustn’t have been fun.
She probably had no authority to do anything about it. Delay, deny, defend…she’s part of deny/defend. She’s there to tell you that you were rejected, not to explain why or appeal. If a doctor calls, they’ll go into “you didn’t submit X step of paperwork declaring the patient has Y, and so even though you noted it elsewhere we’re denying”
Going off script risks her job, and for what? By design, she can do nothing to actually help
That’s inhumane. I wonder if the person on the other end of the phone just didn’t give a shit or what…
I think she did. I could hear pain in her voice.
