These appointments were direct referrals for fully covered VA XXXX to see outside doctors closer to my home. My VA insurance covered these appointments 100 % as they are in-network doctors. However, the clinics have my XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX XXXX insurance card on file as well and they billed the wrong insurance then sent my copays to collections. I have tried to work this out with these companies and the medical offices. The claims have been filed with the VA and these bills are PAID in full!! 

The collections have been removed from XXXX and XXXX after their investigation so Transunion should have removed them too!
