I can not express enough that you should avoid this company at all costs. It’s been 4 weeks with my insurance approval for supplies and they won’t give me a correct answer. They Steve their rep hung up on me. Where can I report this kid of unexpectable behavior?

Very unsatisfied. I decided seeing as they never could have me to be able to speak with a manager that they didn't wish my business as they couldn't even get a resupply order corrected and done right. I will not get my wife's or my CPAP supplies from these people who know nothing about customer service.

I'd give a zero if there was option. All they do is send products not requested or authorized. They enroll in automatic ordering after several requests to not be on auto. Just billing insurance and taking money.

Scam company at best. They'll send you endless medical supplies... even when you cancel. Then they'll try to charge your card for them. I contested my last shipment and ultimately ended up paying for them. Then a year later, they send a random bill for over two hundred dollars... saying insurance didn't pay. One year later... they send a bill. Then you try to reach customer service and you send up in India... another scam country of the world. Needless to say, there needs to be a government investigation into this company and their practices.

This Company is a SCAM. I've only ever talked to a real person once since getting my equipment. They don't return calls and demand money not only from me but my insurance company too. I am suffering because I can't get a working machine and supplies that fit. This company has to be the most dishonest company imaginable. I can't even go to another company to get help because the insurance company will not cover the cost.

I have called them on three occasions to tell them if my insurance does not approve the order, do not send it! Falls on deaf ears. My insurance refused to pay for a $274 order. They said Apria sent me orders that were not unauthorized or ordered by my doctor. They take it on their own to send you supplies, and then bill you saying it is your portion that the insurance didn't cover. I do not know how they stay in business. I feel I am not obligated to pay for them. This is deceptive business practices! I wish I could give them zero stars. They don't even deserve one.

I keep getting $850 invoices, I have spent $2,500 so far, no value there at all. Very little support. Don't waste your HSA money on this service. I regret it. I should have spent the money on **, it would be a much better return on my investment.

In July, I got a new CPAP. My old one was 6 years old. After getting billed for my part of the purchase, I've been getting $15/month bills with no explanation. I contacted Billing twice, but couldn't get a straight answer. Today, I finally did: There's a rent to own for two months. Why no indication of that on the bill? The bill did not say WHAT the charge was for. And I was NEVER told about this "rent to own" stuff. My last CPAP was paid in full from the start. No extra fees or charges of any kind. I paid it now, but we'll see what happens. I'd bet they keep trying to charge me--and my insurance--for this "rent to own" stuff.
I was completely unaware of this rent-to-own part of the plan. I'm not sure I would have agreed if I had been. I'd been told by my MD sleep specialist that my insurance would cover it completely. The Apria phone rep said I'd signed a contract. Impossible. I've never had any contact in-person with an Apria rep. The CPAP was ordered by my MD and Insurance, then shipped to me. This looks like a scam. Or at least, it's shady business practice. When I sign a contract, I have to be informed about what it says. I wasn't given that opportunity. And bill have to tell you what they are for. None of Apria's bills have. CA AG should look into this business.

Awful company! STAY AWAY! They are nice on the phone when you first call, told us prices for CPAP supplies. Then, the bills started coming. Each phone call is painful… You are calling a foreign land when you can’t understand their doublespeak. Constantly placed on a “brief hold.” No explanation as to why we keep getting billed when we paid upfront the amount the original rep quoted us.
Now, after getting billed a 3rd time for more money, we were told they resubmitted the claim to the insurance company. Why? My EOB stated what they got paid, and what we were to pay. Then they tried to bill the new insurance that wasn’t even in effect at the time of the order. Shoddy, sketchy business practices. This morning we received a phone call from a foreign rep trying to order more supplies. When I asked her questions about the billing, she hung up on me. The next bill or phone call I get, I’m going to the BBB. STAY AWAY FROM APRIA. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.

Stay away for Apria. They can not seem to get an order correct and no one seems to know what they are billing. We are just waiting for the contract for our CPAP equipment to expire and will NEVER EVER use Apria again and I will continue to let everyone I meet to stay away from Apria.

I have previously ordered my CPAP supplies from Apria Healthcare. I have been asked numerous times to enroll in automatic replacement and shipment of which I have declined every single time. I prefer to order as needed. This week Apria Healthcare decided to send me supplies without me placing an order. When I called, they said I was set up for automatic shipping. Cleary, Apria Healthcare decided to sign me up without my authorization. It has taken now 5 calls to them to get this stopped and to return the supplies they shipped without my authorization. I consider this criminal and will never order from them again. You have been fired!!

DO not use this product or service. You will get no help from Customer Service at all. They will overcharge you then say it is your fault. I spoke to the most disrespectful manager Leisle ** in the Greensboro/Highpoint office in NC. She Overcharged me for a machine that broke 19 months ago and refuses to fix the machine because I stop paying for it . Now remind you I was current when the machine broke but it took her 14 weeks to get back to me after me calling 2-3 weeks asking for assistance.

Do not buy from this company. I purchased a travel CPAP from them - it was not covered by insurance and I paid out-of-pocket. I also bought an optional item (tube and muffler) that the salesperson said I might need. It took them 7 days to begin the shipment. When finally received, an exact duplicate of the tube and muffler was already included in the box, but the promised travel pouch was NOT! Now I have 2 mufflers and no travel pouch.
The worst part was the pressure settings. Based on the prescription that I submitted, they were supposed to pre-set the device. They set it at the lowest point of the range (below the default level), so it could not use the "ramp" feature. I tried calling their respiratory technicians to adjust, but they are always at other meetings. This company hires incompetent and unqualified salespeople to sell medical products to the public. Shameful! They sell off the shelf products. Don't buy from them. Buy from other, legitimate dealers.

Worst company that I have ever dealt with. They send the wrong supplies, offer discounts if you pay by credit card and then bill you for the discount amount. They also billed my insurance for items that I did not order nor received. All of their representatives speak over you and do not allow you to speak as well as are very hard to understand as they all have a very strong accent. You are will regret it if you ever do business with Apria. I most definitely will never order anything from them ever again.

This is a scam. They have sent auto shipments without authorization. They billed and been paid twice. When we requested the auto shipments to be returned as we did not order them, it took over a month for them to send the return label. Now we are being billed for items that have been returned AND a shipment that was never ordered or received. My insurance has paid twice. This is the most awful company. They call daily.

Terrible customer service. I'm going elsewhere but I feel others should know. They are trying to Bill me using insurance I've never had. Managers hang up on you before resolving anything. Spoke to a manager named Derrek and he was the worst. I'd give no stars if I could.

If I could rate zero stars, I would. This company is terrible. They always mess up billing and end up trying to collect more than you owe. I have several Explanations of Benefits that show zero balance and they keep trying to say I owe more. I called and was told I owe $200 plus, told on another call that I owe $40, and on another one that I owe $400+. They are making up numbers and have no idea what they are doing. In the meantime, they are holding up supplies that I desperately need. Also, when I originally started with CPAP therapy, I was told that I needed to “rent” the device for 13 months for the insurance company to check compliance and then I’d own the device.
Then I switched insurance companies after 10 months because of work and they told me the 13 months starts over. This just sounds like they are defrauding the insurance companies. The monthly rent payment for 13 months should be the same no matter which insurance company pays for it. Once it’s done, it’s done. Essentially, if I switch insurance companies every year, the rent will NEVER end. Terrible.

Beware. Once Apria has your contact information they refuse to unsubscribe you. I have tried for over a year without success. The reason I want to unsubscribe is I changed providers because of a lack of support. Apria has no concern for proper product use. They only want to sell more product. Good luck talking to a respiratory therapist. I got one when I left a message that I wanted to unsubscribe and that Apria was the most unethical company I’ve ever dealt with. I wasn’t unsubscribed. Another helpful employee stated the system would not let her unsubscribe me so she changed the spelling of my name. Did not work. DO NOT GIVE APRIA YOUR PERSONAL INFORMATION!

First review I have ever written but felt the need to confirm what others have already said. I have been very disappointed with the customer service. What began with a simple mistake of someone inputting my insurance ID in correctly led to 8 months of phone calls where someone was "looking into it" and someone would give me a call back but that never occurred. Very frustrating as the claim eventually got sent on to collections and I am still in the process of working through it all. I would encourage anyone to look into a different provider.

This has been the worst company I’ve ever dealt with. My doctor ordered a CPAP and accessories for me. Apria told me that my portion, according to my insurance, was $200, which I paid with a credit card, and I took the equipment home. Later, I received a notification from my credit card company that Apria had charged an additional $795, which I was unaware of.
After investigating, it seems Apria either misread my coverage or charged me the wrong amount without contacting me. Instead, they just charged my card an additional $700 without my consent. I promptly returned all the equipment. However, instead of refunding the amount to my credit card, they issued a paper check. I have been calling Apria for weeks to get a status update on when this paper check will arrive, but nothing has shown up. Today, I called for the fourth time and was told to wait another 4 days. When I asked to speak to a supervisor, I was transferred and immediately disconnected. What a terrible company. Do yourself a favor and avoid dealing with Apria. They’re quick to take your money (even without your consent) and slow to return it. Instead, consider going to a different DME company that values you and your business.

I would like to give a good review for Apria Healthcare CPAP supply area but I can't. It takes forever to get supplies and they always have excuses as to why so long to send. They called me saying they were sending but never received, so I called and it's sitting there waiting to be shipped...17 days later after they called me and they still haven't sent it, the customer service person just kept saying I need to wait....So I'm waiting....Bad company. Bad. Bad. You were good back in the day. What's happened to Apria today...Not good.

Apria was the only in network company when I started them over three years ago. Since then, they seem to have dropped the ball in customer service along with the follow up they promise. Since June of this year 2024 I have told them I will no longer use of need their services. Three calls later they finally picked up the O2 machine. Then, after receiving voice message they will send supplies in last week of July, I called and was told those and the email were just on auto pilot not to worry. So, I finally got the supplies, my card charged $45.10 and my insurance hit for the bill! Here it is now into the third week: no one has called back or told me the truth - no email with a return label, my credit card is still charging the monies, and now my insurance is charging me more for the supplies from the new company.

Apria does not keep their customers in the loop. On two different occasions I had to call customer service to find out the status of my order. I have had orders cancelled without any knowledge of the cancellation. When I ask customer service why, I get no response. Furthermore, their customer service people are very hard to understand, many times I have to ask them to repeat their response. I have told Apria to cancel my auto refill program. When I talk a representative I am told that my auto fill program is still open, they just do not follow through on the customers request. It there were minus stars available I would give them about a negative 5 stars, instead I am stuck giving them 1 star. I would stay away from using Apria for your durable Medical supplies.

My doctor's office set me up with Apria as a supplier for my CPAP. In the several months I was set up on auto resupply, I received three filters and one hose for the wrong machine. Apria, on the other hand, has a massive list of bells and whistles I never received. Each department, from billing and customer service to resupply, has acknowledged the error but needs the stars to align and get someone from each department together to fix this. I am the customer, and they told me this task is 100% on me to arrange. This company is infuriatingly insane. I believe its business plan is to annoy people so much that they give up and pay.

Absolutely horrible customer service. The automated message does not permit any response or the ability to update an address. Customer Service took 30 minutes to answer, then immediately puts callers on hold without a response and then leaves them on hold for 7 minutes without checking on the caller. Does not follow Customer Service protocols for hold, doesn’t wait for the customer to reply. Then they transfer callers putting them on hold for another 30 minutes where the next agent hangs up on customers. Holly who I spoke with on my 3 attempt to get my issue addressed is an exception to the other poor customer service agents.

APAP machine was ordered in January 2024. The equipment was not received for 7 weeks. There have ongoing problems with getting supplies. Very frustrating for my doctor and me.

I have been dealing with Apria for over two years now and I would have to say they are the worst company to deal with. My first encounter was when I returned their phone call, not knowing who they were, and they could not tell me why they called me. They do not keep records of phone conversations, so you constantly have to repeat yourself. I have wasted many hours trying to communicate with them with just about everything. Expect to get different answers from different people. The latest is a billing issue which I’m attempting to resolve. In this case they are charging me a 20% copay, when my insurance should be covering 100%. Fortunately my insurance company is offering to contact Apria directly, hopefully for quicker resolution.

I could not be more frustrated with the service from this company. Every time I try to order supplies my order gets lost or doesn't go through for some odd reason. I follow up to correct whatever it is, then it gets delayed for some other reason. I finally think all is good after speaking to their customer service and wait for supplies to arrive but nothing is delivered. I call back and I'm at square 1 again! This whole scenario has happened 3 times in just 7 months.

When I started using Apria's equipment I started smelling cockroaches. I keep a very clean home and at the time even had a housekeeper. The smell of cockroaches was driving me nuts and I searched everyday trying to find them, to no avail. Nobody else could smell them. Then a few weeks later I ended up in the ICU for respiratory problems. My housekeeper went inside my home to water my plants and discovered hundreds of baby cockroaches crawling out of Apria's Oxygen Concentrator. I never imagined that the odor I was smelling was fumes of toxic cockroach excrement coming through my oxygen hose. 3 weeks later on Christmas Eve, I was discharged from the hospital and was barred from returning to my home until the infestation could be resolved. I was also told to refrain from using Apria's Oxygen Concentrator.
I had to spend 35 days in a hotel, still quite ill and receiving RN visits, while my home was treated. The entire issue cost me well over $5,000.00. I am a disabled veteran on a limited income and had to borrow money to cover these expenses. Apria has denied any responsibility and said that I have no proof. I do have proof. I have photos, video, eyewitnesses, a baggie of roaches, pest inspection reports.from before and after the infestation, the oxygen hose with cockroach excrement, and the machine. What I don't have is the money to take them to court and to perform the necessary tests. Cockroach eggs take 56 days to hatch and the machine was not in my home that long. I can't believe Apria has the gall to deny responsibility. I will find a way to hold them liable. This machine was brought into my home by Apria under contract to Warrior Service Company who is under contract to the Veterans Administration.

This mess started in about March/April 2023. Kaiser Permanente NW went to Apria as the vendor for cpap supplies. Had never had any problems with Kaiser in obtaining what I needed, it was always timely and correct. When I was switched to Apria I placed an order. Upon arrival it was incorrect. It was paid for prior to shipment ad this is their procedure. I called repeatedly but something always kept them from sending what I needed. Called KP sleep study, they confirmed numerous complaints. Called KP member svcs filed complaints. No calls from Apria regarding issues. Needed to replace some things in about October. Called apria and gave specific part numbers for replacement supplies. Again, oaid for them before they were shipped as this is their procedure.
Supplies arrive but they're incorrect. Called them back, reordered. Arrived but incorrect again. Called and reviewed part number from previous Kaiser order (make, model etc...) rep can't find them initially but eventually finds something they say are the correct items. They arrive but incorrect...They're the same things sent previously. More complaints filed through Kaiser and called a few states with apria health offices until I found one with an available respiratory therapist. Talked to him and he states, indeed they do have the item/part numbers I provided but doesn't know why they're not being sent out. I file complaint to Apria through him which supposedly goes to customer relations escalation dept.
Although many other complaints were filed through this respiratory therapist directly to apria I didn't get a call back. Akso filed other complaints via KP.ORG. June 2023 I FINALLY get a call from Apria cust relations. We review everything, make the necessary corrections and I don't have to pay for wrong equip (supposedly). I make last order June 30. YEAAHH!!! It's correct and ALMOST COMPLETE! Didn't get a couple of filters but at this point...MORE THAN A YEAR AFTER THIS MESS STARTED...I'll take it as a partial victory.
This week I get a collections letter from ARstrat in Texas informing me I need to pay for something I previously paid for (VERIFIED BY APRIA BILLING DEPT).Call apria trying to get hold of the rep in customer relations. The people i spoke to didnt know there was such a department or didn't know how to contact them. Finally did (pure dumb luck) reach someone who knew how to accomplish this herculean feat. Called yesterday and supposedly taken care of but I have serious doubts. Advise would be to use another vendor.
It's been about 15 or so months since this fiasco began. It's interesting that on numerous occasions when I called apria the rep on the phone would admit they're pretty bad at this. There was one who even stated "yes, we suck at this". Calls to Kaiser elicited the same responses at times. I don't know how the company works to provide health services or supplies to consumers. No one who deals with patients or consumers at the initial levels knows anything. That maybe unfair but for me that's been a fact. It's only those in the middle and upper levels who have any knowledge on how to resolve problems of any sort. Part of what they ought to do is to get rid of the off-shore call centers and have everything based in the country served. Still waiting for final outcome

Apria is the worst DME company I have ever used in my life. I wish my healthcare provider would use another company as Apria does not care about elderly/disabled patients. I have been going back and forth with Apria for 3 days about replacing my mom’s air mattress to prevent bed sores but they will not do so. Her previous one deflated/malfunctioned and they only provided me with a standard mattress in which she cannot sleep on. Is causes her great discomfort and the risk of bed sores. My mom is a complete quadriplegic so this has been a nightmare for her, me and Apria.
The staff in the office is very rude. Robin kept cutting me off and others into their call center are totally unprofessional and careless. The nicest person I’ve spoke with so far is Tiffany but she can’t help me as everyone states they are waiting on an update from management. No call or update from management yet! I’m so frustrated with this matter. Apria is horrible and the unprofessional staff that works there. Run, don’t use them if you have a choice.

I have never had to deal with a business like this before. I received my sleep apnea machine 6 months ago. No one from Apria ever contacted me about anything. So I called in to put in an order and heard nothing. Placed another order and heard nothing. My doctor's office sent in 2 different prescriptions where nothing was done. One of the orders wasn't approved by insurance for not being compliant, but there was nothing wrong with the others. Today I find out that they need my medicare number???? 6 months later. And still no orders have been placed. They just sit there. Waiting for a supervisor to call. I wonder if they will. Don't have a whole lot of hope based on the past 6 months.

I have had to use Apria on and off for oxygen equipment many years. It’s always been a huge hassle, but my most recent experience has been infuriating. I no longer medically require oxygen now and they continue to charge me a monthly fee. Last week, I scheduled for them to come pick up the oxygen concentrator and all the tanks. They didn’t show up. They didn’t call to say why they didn’t show up. My family took off from work to be here at home, waiting all day. I need to have this resolved as soon as possible.

Apria's online billing ePay platform does not accurately reflect payments. When I call in they say no amount is due but I get the run around when I ask them to put a ticket in to fix ePay. Their customer service is horrible. This is just one of many issues. If I had any other choice and wasn't locked into an equipment contract I would never never never use them.

I was billed an extra $300 because Apria told them I was noncompliant. I was in full compliance and had to fight with billing for two hours to get them to tell me how to get my records from them. Now come to find out that while I was unable to pay my $160 bill, they allowed insurance to change my deductible for services already billed and rendered. This brings my &160 bill to a whopping $540 in the span of 1 month. I was told I would be paying a set amount of money and they keep changing their minds. Every person in billing that I've spoken to from 8/23-7/24 failed to mention they had incorrect insurance on my account which was preventing me from receiving my bill (which I had previously complained about to no avail). They have not sent me supplies in 10 months due to a billing issue caused by their own billing department AND their medical offices.
I have called the billing dept, the customer service dept, the local office, etc. Their "respiratory specialists" never return a phone call requesting assistance with mask issues. I will be completing my business with Apria and will not be working with them again. I would rather buy every CPAP supply I need directly from the manufacturer or from AMAZON than to ever work with Apria again. This has been a horrible experience. For the amount for time and energy I have had to put in to receive LESS THAN BASIC healthcare, I should be getting paid by these people.

New Bipap supplied by Apria malfunctioned by shutting off air completely with no alarm or warning. Apria respiratory therapist (Paul) said it was supposed to do that even after I advised him that I spoke to the bipap manufacturer who advised that it was indeed malfunctioning. He refused to do anything. Supervisors never contacted me although I requested to speak to one repeatedly over many calls to the company. Ended up dumping them for a different supplier, but they continue to bill me for charges the insurance company says I don't owe in violation of the insurance contract.
Also had to file a complaint with the Better Business Bureau because Apria was calling without leaving messages, texting & e-mailing me to pay more than what they billed the insurance for. BBB finally got them to agree to stop contacting me, but they still send bills albeit for a slightly lower amount even though insurance already paid them. My Insurance rep advised that if I continue to receive bills, they could possibly be dropped from the insurance network.

I have been forced to get my BiPAP supplies through Apria for about 20 years now. The information they for me online in my custom profile is that old. Despite trying to have it corrected online and after multiple phone calls they can still not make it correct. My order history online has only 2 orders from 2022 even though I have had ordered from them at least 40 times. They have called me, emailed me and sent mail to me telling me I should sign up for auto supply renewal. This required me to fill out a form online and provide an eSignature which I did. Then you have to print it and fax it to them. This is absurd.
Nothing happened for two weeks since I did that so I called them today to get the status. After being on hold for awhile I was told this was invader Medicare patients. So why have they wasted my time and implored me to sign up for something I am not eligible for. All my orders for the last three years have been billed to Medicare.

I would think they could have better quality to patients. This seems like a racket. My last sleep study was also done with an Apria device and it was low quality.

We had oxygen delivered to our home last week. We know almost nothing about the system which included a concentrator & 1 green hose & 1 clear hose. After the delivery man left & his last job must have been delivering pizzas, we looked at what was left in our bedroom & wondered how we could keep it working, looked simple enough. My husband, from the first night using this setup, thought he was not getting enough oxygen & we looked at the 2 hoses, clear & green, & thought maybe if we put the other unused clear hose on, that things would improve. We tried to take the clear hose apart from the green hose. Both of us tried to get the 2 hoses, clear & green, apart but could not remove from each other. Our intention was to put on a new clear hose, the one with the cannula to see if he could get a better oxygen supply. We could not take the 2 hoses apart.
So I called Apria, in St Louis, & got the most uninformed RUDE lady I have ever spoken to. I explained the reason for my call & she did not understand 1 word I said. So I asked if there were any technicians there to speak to. Answer was the tech was preparing the packages that needed to be shipped today & he was too busy to speak to her. The call ended up with her scheduling an appointment 4 days later. Today Is that day. Same man who delivered the unit in the first place came back to explain the system. He pulled the 2 hoses apart as if it were a toy. When we tried & could not, I asked what were we to do. He had no answer. So then I got out the bag of hoses he left last week & took out a black part & asked what it was for. He went to the concentrator & told me it's a replacement for when we replaced the green hose on the concentrator.
At this point I am looking down at the green hose connected to the concentrator & see something that should not be there. I very large kink in the green hose about 1 foot from the tank. I picked it up & showed to the man & asked if this was the reason my husband was not getting enough oxygen at night? This kink was almost totally closing off air from getting thru to the cannula. Think of this, putting both of your hands on the green hose & bending it so nothing goes thru the green hose. Even when I tried to straighten the green hose out, it just went back to being almost closed. I asked the man if he could shorten the green hose to get rid of the kink & I also inspected every foot of the rest of the green hose. His answer was a resounding NO. So I asked, "What are we to do, how do we know how much oxygen my husband was really getting?"
He says, "I don't know." After he thought about it, something rang a bell in his head because he decided to give us a new green hose. Believe me when I say I checked that new hose & every inch of it. After he left, I thought about this encounter and & decided to call Apria for an explanation. The man who answered the phone heard my story & asked why I was calling (I just told him). I said, "Does the delivery man come back to your location? Because someone needs to see the kink in the hose he is bringing back." His answer was no, he was working remote today. So folks, if you are getting oxygen soon, be damn sure someone explains how it works & be sure there are zero kinks in all hoses cause the people selling, supplying & delivering it haven't a clue & probably don't even care.

I cannot imagine there is a worse company to do business with than Apria. While the dozen or so customer service folk with whom I have spoken are all cordial and pleasant, the company itself has no ability to manage their inventory or provide any information about status of order until shipped. As such, one is lured into this false sense that their equipment is on the way - "5-7" business days and when that comes up, one is then told the lead time is actually "10-14" business days... which then can be indefinite.
Most disturbing, and not the fault of the helpless customer service folks is that all orders are in a black hole until shipped... meaning, you cannot get any information in terms of when you can actually expect your order or even where it is in the process of being processed. I honestly have no idea how this company remains in business. After NOT receiving my replacement cpap parts as led to believe (5-7) business days, I left for vacation only to find that even after 10 additional days - the products had still not arrived. When I called - multiple times - I learned that there is no status information. Another 10 days passed and I received an email saying my order had shipped. When it finally arrived - the mask was the wrong size.
Now, after speaking to Apria again, I am essentially back to square one with no information as to when I will receive the correct mask and no expedited option regardless of who would be paying. I have no choice but to go to cpap.com or another online vendor. I honestly hope Apria goes out of business or is shut down by authorities as no company in healthcare should be allowed to operate in this manner. Of course, mistakes happen - I get it - but after lying to me about delivery on multiple occasions and then having no ability to correct a mistake in a timely manner is inexcusable.

A number of issues with this company and how they operate. I'll say, my experience at the branch has been fine. It's when you get to billing that their true colors show.
1. They charge you before submitting claims to the insurance. For me, this meant a charge hitting my HSA debit card even though I had already hit my max out of pocket with my insurance and so there should have been a $0 patient (me) responsibility. Good luck trying to get a refund from them - after numerous failed attempts with their "billing" department, I tried the branch who confirmed their billing department is outsourced to another company, and whichever company this is, they are HORRIBLE.
2. It is impossible to speak to a manager (or "level 2 / level 3 supervisor" as they refer to them as). Speaking with them, it appears they are trained to try to redirect you so you can't ever speak to anyone who can actually resolve anything. They continuously try to change the subject and tell you that your issue cannot be escalated.
3. Supplies that were shipped were delivered to the wrong address and Apria has not replaced them. Not only was I charged for supplies without authorization and after running through insurance I have $0 patient responsibility, but I never even received the supplies! Over a week of deflecting from them and no resolution, meanwhile I have an incorrect debit from my HSA account and still do not have medical supplies.
4. They enrolled me in automatic resupply even though I requested not to. They want you to be enrolled because if you are enrolled in automatic resupply, that means they can charge your saved credit/debit card at will. DO NOT ENROLL.

After much online prodding by Apria Direct to order CPAP supplies, I finally, having not found a particular item on Amazon, ordered one (yes, 1) Phillips Respironics nasal pillow. To my astonishment it cost around $52 which included shipping and handling. As my college History professor used to say (at the end of almost every sentence), "pays your money, makes your choice". So, shame on me.... When a few days ago, I was noodling online at Amazon and I found the exact same item for nine dollars and change. This 5X markup seem a wee bit excessive, don't you think? I thought about returning Apria's nasal pillow but figured I should keep it as a reminder about what happens when one doesn't adequately do one's homework.

My mom has been on hospice and assisted care for a little over a year. Apria cannot seem to keep consistent records nor a reliable delivery schedule. When she was improved from Hospice care and we asked for the portable oxygen tank and hospital bed to be removed from the home, the driver also took the Innogen concentrator which she still needed. Not thinking it was a big deal, we called to re-order it, and they said they had a waiting list. Then once we got thru that, they kept calling (overseas call staff usually) to schedule delivery - which didn't happen - over and over and over. Today, she was released from the hospital with a recommendation of a standard walker.
I confirmed everything with the overseas virtual assistant who had her assisted care address. Then a few hours later I get a call from a man at the Sacramento Apria wanting to deliver the walker to her former home. When I politely expressed my frustration, he disconnected. Either they simply have very poor processes in place and don't pay their staff enough to tolerate simply criticism for the inept business practices, or they simply don't care.

Prior to accepting my CPAP machine, I was told by Apria that my insurance would cover the cost 100%. In fact it surprised me that they were so definitive given the disclaimer you typically get for insurance coverage. My first machine was used and smelled like smoke. At my follow-up doctor's visit, they were furious to learn of this and contacted Apria. I then had to schedule a time to swap out the machine, a major inconvenience. Several months later I received noticed from Apria that I had a past due balance.
After several requests for an invoice (I hadn't received one despite receiving many marketing mailers from them to reorder supplies), I finally got one with no explanation. The local office then told me that it was for swapping out my machine and I should not have been billed. Thankfully I saved their voicemail (in addition to text messages requesting an invoice and being told the erroneous balance was fixed). Several months later I received a letter from a collection agency!
I emailed the same folks at Apria that I'd dealt with before and they never responded. After filing a complaint and sending a "drop dead" letter to the collection agency, Apria responded and told me that my insurance company was the problem and that the insurance company claimed they had been trying to reach me for months. I called my insurance company and you guessed it - that was not true. A couple of weeks later I received another - much higher - invoice from the same time period, now 10 months from when the whole mess started. Avoid this company at all costs.

Pros: They were upfront about pricing and what was included in my original order, but I did have to ask for it. They were cheaper than another company who was trying to charge me $1500 for a $900 CPAP because it was what my insurance was willing pay, but I would have ended up way overpaying on my coinsurance.

Additionally, they have like different websites for everything. I have had to make 3 separate accounts with them because they have a one website for statements, another for reordering supplies, another for ordering supplies if you haven't bought from them before... Makes me wonder how many more are out there I don't even know about. It's so disorganized and just plain stupid. Plus you have to fill out your insurance/doctor/address information for every single one. Unsurprisingly though, they have no problem transferring your billing info, because let's be real that is the only thing that matters to any company to begin with. Instead of having one website or making the data transferrable they would rather the burden fall on their customers.

After a couple of weeks went by with no delivery I called Apria and was told that they did not process my order because they had not received notes they had requested from my doctor’s office. I asked why no one had contacted me from Apria and they said they had left a message (they did not).
I then called my doctor’s office and the respiratory therapist said she would order the equipment for me. 3 weeks later I called Apria again when I had not received the equipment. I spoke with someone named Betsey who said she was not allowed to tell me her last name. She said she saw in their records that they had received the required notes from the doctor’s office but now they needed “something else”. I asked to speak to a supervisor and she said the supervisor named Michelle (again no last name) was too busy to talk to me but would call me back. That was a few hours ago and no call back so far.

Apria again refused to send a breast pump because I was not expected to have a premature birth. I confirmed with my doctor, my insurance, and other moms that this is NOT a reason to refuse a breast pump. They then said that I needed to wait until I was within 30 days of my delivery date.
I called at that point and they said that I needed to have tried and failed a manual breast pump. I pushed back saying that this did not make sense because I had not yet delivered and there was no way for me to try and fail a manual breast pump. They then said they would not send a breast pump until AFTER I deliver the baby. I have confirmed that no other DME company does this.
It seems that Apria does everything in its power to tell inconsistent and nonsensical excuses to pregnant mothers so as to look after their own pocket books. Apria should NOT advertise itself as a company that supplies breast pumps to expecting mothers. Apria refuses to support expecting mothers, they refuse to tell consistent information to expecting mothers, they make it as difficult as possible for expecting mothers to get the supplies that they need, and ultimately, they refuse to supply breast pumps as they falsely advertise.

I had my CPAP machine for just two months. I ordered some supplies that I never received. Suddenly, out of the blue they came to pick up my unit without any notification nor explanation. When I called to understand why, they said that because I changed insurance which I did but notified them. After not hearing back from them, I called them again, and they now tell me they need a new prescription to proceed with the new insurance (!). In the meantime, they forced me to $300 for no reason and just sent a letter saying that I had a unit to return asap. A total mess. Wait times are Uber long. There are 4 different numbers to contact customer service. No online option. This company is stuck in the 90s.

First, I was shipped a CPAP without ever agreeing to it. The machine was delivered on a day I happened to be home which is good because in my neighborhood it would have been stolen. Then they wanted me to sign a blank financial agreement. When I called to find out what the payments would be they first told me it was no charge to me since I met my max out of pocket with my insurance. That'd be nice but next month is January and it was supposed to be a rental for 6 months before owning it. Mind you they had also already charged my insurance $1800! I had to press them to actually get a monthly price in which they finally told me what it would be. They wanted to charge me DOUBLE what a different company would have charged me! I told them I was wanting to return it and asked where to ship it. They said it had to be hand delivered or they couldn't verify it was returned. Not even if they signed for the delivery!
So I had to miss some work to drop it off at their inconveniently located place. When I got there I was told I would have to sign forms with them for dropping it off. The first form they wanted me to sign was the same blank financial agreement they wanted me to sign online!!! When I refused (especially since I was returning the box unopened) they told me they couldn't take it back without me signing this form! I had to handwrite on their form that I did NOT agree to them billing me or my insurance, the box was returned without being opened, and I was being forced to sign or they wouldn't let me return it. I made sure to get a copy of it! I would not recommend using this company EVER! Especially with them wanting signatures on blank financial agreements!

In 2 years I've managed to place 2 orders, both times my copay after insurance coverage was more than me just ordering the same supplies from Amazon. On several items not only was Amazon cheaper but were the name brand instead of a no name off brand that fell apart within a couple weeks.

I needed replacement tubing for my CPAP machine and it was kind of an emergency, since mine got damaged. I went to their website and opened a chat dialog to see about getting some supplies from my local "Retail" location. The "Customer Service" agent, "Trisha" said that wasn't possible as they don't carry any inventory. When I asked her what I was supposed to do as I needed the replacement quickly, her response was to tell me to go get it somewhere else. When I expressed my disappointment in that answer, she shut down the session.
I tried calling the local "Retail" location, but it put me through to their main call center, which consists of several jumps through automated menus and at least two transfers before I finally got to a selection for automated supply ordering. I went through more menu selections and, when I entered my phone number, I was told it wasn't recognized. Twice. I couldn't back out so I had to start over from the beginning and, skipping the "automated" part, got to someone who also told me that the "Retail" locations were just for setting up equipment and that she could set up my resupply order and it would be here in 7-10 days. She seemed unconcerned with my fairly immediate need. She confirmed my information which included my phone number (You know, the phone number the system failed to recognize. Twice.).
I'll see if anyone in town carries the tubing I need and, if not, I guess I'll be digging out my old machine until my resupply gets here in a week or so. I can certainly see why, everywhere you look, Apria has abysmal ratings. Their customer service is far from it and, being paired with Kaiser Permanente, as it is in my case, makes things even worse. I'm glad I'm switching back to Premera, where I'll, hopefully, get set up with a real medical supply company that has real medical supplies, instead of this mail-order garbage company.

There are so many things that has caused me grief you would not believe it, but they do include No support of any kind, calling me several times at work telling me my insurance company is not in-network, which anyone would know Priority Health is, which made me sit on the phone while at work a ridiculous amount of time and numerous times trying to fix this and then me having to call Priority Health in which I was told every time that Apria's system shows they are no in-network for some reason but it is not true.
I would receive random supplies of equipment in which I was not on the auto-order system. In January and February of 2023, they billed my portion to my credit card 3 times for each month. When I disputed it, they got mad and would just send me bills. I returned the equipment at the end of March to the local Branch in my city that I live in and just received another bill (this month) for my portion telling me that it was not paid in March. I mean, just to be rid of them, I went ahead and already paid the portions that I originally disputed (because of their constant lies and harassment) and now there is still one more left. I tried to get the local office involved and thought because of this horrendous treatment, they would call it good and just write off this last amount (which is an over billing), but NO, I was just told once I paid it, my account would be up to date.
I swore up and down I would not pay it and go to my grave not paying it, but when they have you and your credit at gunpoint, we have very little to fight back against. There is something seriously wrong when a company like this is not held accountable. I have read many reviews on this site and we all have similar stories. It's very sick to me that the reason we have dealt with them is due to a medical issue in which they are contributing to it. My doctor wants me to be on CPAP to protect my heart, but Apria has caused me serious stress and that is affecting my heart.

Apria is the absolute worst healthcare provider out there. They should be investigated for fraud and dishonest customer practices. To be specific, I was connected to Apria as the provider of my CPAP equipment, which needs to be periodically replaced. All it is plastic tubes, tiny filters, plastic nose coverings, etc. If you go to the local pharmacy, none of the equipment is very expensive, but in theory Apria makes the process of using CPAP easier by sending you the equipment to your home and in appropriate intervals in accordance with normal usage. However, what actually happens is something quite sinister.
Apria actually charges 5-10x what the equipment actually charges, and attempts to get whatever it can out of your insurance. At first, you will likely not notice that they are billing hundreds of dollars per month for things that cost very little. As long as the insurance pays some % of the cost, things are fine. However, if your insurer ever declines to pay Apria, they will come after you in dogged fashion for the full amount of a grossly inflated bill. They will, without blinking, as you to pay hundreds of dollars for equipment that you could have gotten for $25-50.
I'm currently being harassed for $350 related to one month of equipment sent to me that was denied by my insurer because Apria mishandled the medical information or wouldn't work with my ENT doctors office to make sure they had what they needed to properly file a claim. The equipment they are chasing me for costs less than $50 in at CVS. This is unscrupulous on multiple levels. First, they are inflating the prices of the products tremendously. Then they are jamming customers at the first opportunity with bills and threats.
They don't explain their protocols before it's too late, and they refuse to wait until a billing attempt is approved by your insurer before sending the equipment to you, trapping you in a collections scheme at ridiculous prices. It is designed to be a trap, and they will not work with you to make their protocols customer friendly. Their goal is to obligate you and then harass you. They aren't interested in avoiding the frustration by simply making sure the claim is approved before shipping. They are 100% in it for latching onto you. This company needs to be investigated.

Apria has provided me with CPAP equipment for almost 5 years. I have also had a 6-month experience in 2022 with an oxygen concentrator rental. Overall, each experience has been poor, although there have been a few good customer service people who individually were helpful. That part is hit or miss. My biggest complaint is dealing with the billing department. Billing staff appear reluctant to provide any information regarding pricing. Everyone in billing to whom I have spoken has a thick accent and they don't seem to listen to or understand me. It almost seems like there is a delay in the phone connection as if they are speaking from a distant country, so we often talk over each other due to the delay. I must ask the same question many times and even then, I am lucky to get an answer. The conversation has gotten terse on both sides because of the frustration of being unable to understand each other. It is just awful.
Another frustration is that Apria had system breaches which, according to the letter I received, they became aware of 9/1/2021. Additionally, the same letter indicates they had additional breaches in 2019. The letter states, "An unauthorized third party accessed systems which contained personal information from April 5, 2019 to May 7, 2019 and from August 27, 2021 to October 10, 2021." While I do understand that these unfortunate events occur, my biggest complaint is that I was not notified of the latest Apria breach until I received a letter on June 6, 2023, ALMOST TWO YEARS after they became aware of the incident. Who knows when they became aware of the 2019 incident, that was over FOUR years prior to the letter being sent.
In comparison, I recently learned from another company that I do business with had a similar event occur, and their notification took only a couple of MONTHS. Apria can do better, especially with HIPAA information. The Department of Health and Human Services website says companies must inform customers of breaches within 60 days!!!
Another issue with Apria occurred today. I got a repeat voicemail from the Sleep Management Department, "checking on our patient' asking me to call 800-436-5657. I called the number and was taken to a computerized system asking questions about me. This was the second time I have tried to call this number and I rarely get through two questions because the computer can't understand me- and I speak American English with no accent. The computer finally gives up and tells me to call a real person at Apria. I called that number, and they have no record of the call.
Then I was told I need to talk to billing (oh no) because have the account hold due to the small amount I owe. Got transferred there and learned that apparently billing put a hold on my account because I owed under $3.50 since March. Then she tells me that they only send out bills for over $5. So, there is no way I would have even known about that outstanding bill. At that point, I then wondered if the 800-436-5657 is a scam call, since it didn't seem like a voicemail regarding billing at all, but I searched online and this number seems to be associated with Apria Sleep Management area (not billing).
In the past, I’ve had questions about cpap equipment that Apria says I need to speak to one of their Respiratory Therapists (RT) to get answers. They take my number and say the RT with call back within 48 hours (or so). There is no control over when they call, so I ALWAYS miss the first call because I am busy with something else at the time. They do not leave a way to call back and get in touch with someone, so the whole process must start again. Generally it takes 3 plus times of going through the entire process to get in touch with an RT. It seems like Apria could offer an appointment system or time window for call backs.
Overall, these examples show this company is siloed, disjointed and doing the wrong things to cut costs. The different areas seem completely disconnected, and it is very difficult to get to the right person. They are trying to cut costs with unscheduled callbacks, computer generated ‘healthcare’ and billing departments in lower paying countries. The problem is that the computers and the foreign billing folks don’t understand English. Unfortunately, I feel forced to continue working with Apria because both large insurance companies I have used since 2019 have Apria as a preferred provider.

Since April 3, 2023, I have been tirelessly attempting to obtain a CPAP machine. Despite my doctor's office sending multiple prescriptions via fax and my persistent calls, every interaction with Apria Healthcare's representatives at the branch has resulted in claims of not receiving the faxes. On one occasion, I was informed that I was in their system, but specific information was missing. I promptly contacted my doctor again, who faxed over another prescription. This frustrating cycle has persisted since April 3, 2023. Three months have passed, and numerous calls have been made to the branch, yet I am still without a CPAP machine. As a result, my broken machine leaves me unable to sleep.

My personal information was hacked from April to May 2019 and from August 27 to October 10, 2021. The company cannot rule out the possibility that my information was used as a result of this incident but my date of birth, health insurance policy number or subscriber number, my address, email address, name, my telephone numbers, and my Social Security number are at risk. I have just received a letter letting me know about this two years later. They have said that they will provide me with one year of identity protection.
First of all I have no idea who they are so I looked them up. APRIA stands for ASIA, PACIFIC RISK AND INSURANCE ASSURANCE. So now China has my information. I guess they got my information through my use of a cpap machine. I’m not sure what we do about this, but this is a company that, according to the reviews on this website, has multiple issues with their billing services. Now we also have issues with their security services. So if you use a cpap machine or any kind of breathing apparatus, you might want to be cautious and check with the company you deal with and see who their billing or supplier is.

This is the worse company I've ever dealt with. Example: I received a bill for $11.40. The date of the invoice was June 6. On June 14 I paid with a credit card via Apria's website. On June 20 I get an automated call that I need to pay the bill to avoid further collection efforts. The bill isn't due for another 7 days and they are threatening collections! In addition, Medicare and my supplement company says I should owe $2 less then Apria says I owe. I pay the higher amount to avoid the aggravation, but it's an example of how bad this company is. AVOID THEM at all costs.

I hope you don't have to deal with this company! I've been trying to get an issue resolved for 3 and a half months and about 16 hours of my time. Apria has admitting to overcharging us, but have yet to see any money back. We were supposed to be charged around $80 (our portion) for CPAP machine and supplies. Apria put $258 in charges on my credit card in February alone. I called and told them to take my card off their files and it isn't very good business to make changes without asking/notifying first.
Apria keeps telling me that our insurance company "requires" us to "rent to own" the new machine, however, my insurance states that is incorrect! I have an explanation of benefits that I've sent and they have, but they're still saying we owe monthly?! I've disputed 2 charges from Feb. with my credit card company, filed a complaint with the BBB, our insurance company is filing a grievance with Apria, and I filed a complaint with the Attorney General today.
As of yet, I have NO resolution, but am hopeful! The Attorney General did say, if they get enough complaints against them, they might do a class action suit against them?! I just want what they owe me! IF you're still reading and are as frustrated as I have been, PLEASE contact your Attorney General, the more complaints to them, the better! Good luck!

Breas Z2 Auto Does not work properly and no return. Have been having a hell of a time getting support for a Breas Z2 CPAP machine that simply does not work properly. Over the course of 2 months, the unit has been in the box waiting return instructions for 2 weeks, then at manufacturer for 4 weeks for review. Said it works fine, but it doesn't. Now Apria saying that since it's been more than 30 days, they can't accept a return. Let's see how this works for them. If you buy something, better hope it works or you're totally screwed.

The billing is so messed up that it affects my blood pressure!! I had a contract that after my supplemental Medicare insurance paid the initial deposit, I was supposed to pay 41.49 per month for 10 months. That is what was in the contract! All was going well for 2 payments and suddenly there was a charge for over $300. No explanation except that my insurance changed the initial deposit from Approved to Denied. This is **! In my research, I found that they actually re-submitted the exact same bill twice.
So of course, Medicare would deny the 2nd attempt to get more out of my supplemental insurance. And now, they've added more charges that just say CPAP on it. If I have a stroke because of this company's billing mess, I have instructed my children to sue them! I will be reporting them to the CA attorney general as well. Thanks for listening. I'm glad I found this resource and that I'm not the only one with billing problems. NOTE: The Apria office where I picked up my CPAP was amazing!! It's only the billing that's BAD!!!

For months I have been trying to get my billing issue fixed. Apria told me I needed to contact my insurance which I did and they instructed me to get a new authorization from Apria. They stated the reason why the bill hasn’t been paid because of a bad authorization. I spend hours on the phone with my insurance and Apria on the phone. I was told by Apria that a new auth would be sent and everything would be taken care of. Two days later I’m still getting text message about equipment pick up. I call Apria and they don’t know what’s going on they said to call my insurance again because a auth was sent. I called my insurance and they stated that they never received anything. Then today I speak with my insurance and they said Apria didn’t send a auth because I was not compliant. I been using my Machine and they only read my card one time. I’ve never had this kind of trouble with any other company.

This company is a scam boiler room operation that offshores all customer service to the Philippines where well intentioned workers have limited scripts in their effort to resolve issues. They not only scam the US patients but the offshore workers they employ. I received a CPAP machine that did not work in August '22 and tried to have it picked up in September '22. They continued to bill me without picking up the machine and then started aggressive collection efforts for the increasing balance. I had approximately 25 documented conversations with offshore collectors wherein I told them the machine does not work and needs to be picked up. Every single time, they told me they needed to transfer me to the department that handles pickups, I waited on hold for between 5-10 minutes and then the call disconnected, EVERY SINGLE TIME.
The phone number that one individual gave to call for pickups rings many times and then fails. Then in February '23 on a random day, I was out of town traveling and a Fedex guy showed up at my door to pick up the machine. Spoke with him through my Ring camera and arranged a day to come back the following week, which he did. Now I continue to get collection calls for the machine that never once worked and I cannot speak to ANYONE at Apria who isn't an offshore bill collector with zero ability to speak about this other than to say how sorry they are for my concerns. I don't understand how this company A) is still in business and B) has not been investigated and shut down by state attorneys general for abusing elderly patients. I will be filing complaints in Florida with our Office of Consumer Affairs and other government authorities that protect residents from this type of abuse. BEWARE OF DOING ANY BUSINESS WITH THIS COMPANY.

Recently received my CPAP supplies which included a mask that was somewhat different than the one I had been using. It would not work with my current headgear. When I called Apria to inquire about it the customer service person was not receptive to my description of the issue and became rude and argumentative. We became disconnected. I think she hung up on me. This is not the first time I have had an issue with their customer service. If it wasn't so difficult, I would definitely switch suppliers. I would not recommend this company to anyone.

Everything about dealing with this company has been a nightmare. I got my CPAP machine about 2 months ago (having to track it down - they shipped it to the wrong address) after a 4 month wait, and it didn't come with everything I needed (no mask, no hose.) It came equipped with a tank - as expected. I got another package a month later that had the hose and mask. Great. The box also included a spare tank that was not for my machine. I never ordered a spare tank, and even if I had, the one I got was useless to me. I called customer service to ask for an RMA and a call tag. They told me to donate it to my pulmonologist. OK, fine.
I got a statement the other day showing I owed them $156. Some of the charges were for 'Deductibles.' My agreement was to pay $23/month. I saw charges for $23, $45, $23 - billed in one month. Also 'CPAP Supplies.' No item description. I had never ordered any supplies. The one that caught my eye was 'CPAP humidifier' for $77. I also saw that they had charged my card and paid that invoice. What were they charging me for? The tank that came with my CPAP machine, or the spare tank that I neither ordered, needed, or could even use - the tank they'd told me to donate?
So yesterday I called the Billing Dept. They were completely clueless - couldn't tell me what I was being charged for, or why, only that they weren't going to credit my account for the spare tank because, "We bill separately for the tank." WHAT??!! They sent me to the Supplies Dept. I explained the situation to them and they sent me back to Billing, who sent me back to Supplies, who sent me to the local branch, who had no idea why I'd been sent to them. Back and forth, back and forth, with no one at Apria willing to understand that I had been billed for things I hadn't ordered, needed, or could even use.
I finally ended the conversation demanding that I get a credit for the tank. I have to bring it in to the local branch. Once they get it the Billing Dept. will (allegedly) issue a credit. I highly doubt it. If it comes to that I'll be filing a claim with my credit card company. This company is either engaging in fraudulent billing practices, or is completely incompetent. Look for your CPAP supplies elsewhere. I plan to have a chat with my doctor, to let her know not to write her patients' orders to Apria.

RE: APRIA Healthcare. Be aware of this company, they will do anything to get money out of customers. I have tried for over a year to return equipment they delivered to my doorstep without my consent. I have called, sent messages and letters for this past year, a couple of times they scheduled a time to pick the equipment up, but never came. Now they have sent the bill to a collection agency, and I am up for almost $100 for equipment I never authorized, never needed and never used!

I have had oxygen concentrator since October 2022. I no longer need oxygen so I have tried multiple times to have pick up service. They will only pick up on Tuesdays and Thursdays, the only two days I cannot be gone from work. When I’ve tried to call for help, I am on hold longer than 30 min to only be disconnected when answered or I am transferred to “someone else.” I can’t lift the items to take them to the local office and I have told them that repeatedly. Yet they have left tags on my door asking me to call them and they have called my daughter because they haven’t been able to reach me about my equipment. They can certainly reach me about my bill.
I had a sudden closure at work on a Thursday so I called today to see if it was possible to be squeezed in since both parties are trying to get the equipment back. When I called today to explain the sudden open day, the Rep just said no. Not “let me see how I can help you” or “let me see if there is anything I can do”. Just a flat no. Then she goes on about me returning the equipment to the local office which I have told them repeatedly that I can’t lift the equipment. I got so frustrated that I just hung up. The worst customer service I have ever seen in a healthcare industry.

PLEASE if you are on oxygen use another company like Major Medical. I get hung up on a lot, like when did that become a practice? I am kind and nice. I am asking for another refillable tank and they won't do it. They told me to take my emergency tank with me to appointments, what? I live rural. I am really stuck right now and they have hung up on me 6 times in 3 business days. I wanted a supervisor to call me. They assured me they would. It's now 3 days later. When I called them to tell them I'd be switching to MM and to send my prescription there...she hung up on me. So now I have to start the process all over with my Pulmonologist. THEY ARE HORRIBLE!!

2. We never filed with medicare. We had to verify your insurance (which we did last March 2022)
3. We need to verify the equipment so we never filed with medicare and you didn't return our calls.
To be fair I don't return calls from unknown numbers that don't explain what they want. Apparently apria healthcare is also Radius Global and other numbers I don't recognize. No call ever mentioned a bed. I specifically asked what they need from me they refused to tell me instead trying to get me to call their branch office after being on hold for 2 hours with the call back number they provided when they threatened to take my bedridden mother's bed.

You was given a junky old oxygen concentrator during covid. When it was time to pick it up I told the lady it wasn’t working. She said they would pick it up. I asked if I could pay to get it fixed and she said no. A month later they stopped supplying my CPAP supplies and I asked why and they said because I didn’t return the oxygen concentrator. They refused to pick it up. They are scamming Medicaid for the cost. You called three times to have it picked up and they refused. I emailed multiple people and no response. They are scamming Medicaid by saying we didn’t return the equipment but in fact they absolutely refuse to pick it up so they can write them off. They now refuse to supply my CPAP and I’m going to die because I have no other place to get it and they don’t care.

Very unprofessional company. Ordered equipment in Sept. 2022, delivered Nov. 2022. Originally was told my equipment would be covered in full. By my insurance company. Soon after began receiving bills and was told by several managers that they would be reviewing the recorded phone calls to confirm that I was told it was covered. I never received any calls back from the managers and then decided to return the equipment as it can be purchased online for less than their cost.
Spoke with Jordan ** who was helpful in advising that Apria had given me incorrect information on several occasions. I asked to speak with his manager, Annie **, who refused to speak with me and instead directed me to the billing department. I then asked to speak with Annie **’s manager, General Manager, Andrew **, who I was told is not in the office. Jordan did advise that they speak via cell phone conversations. I assume this is so they do not have any evidence of their conversations or emails to further incriminate themselves.

In October of last year, My PCP approved a referral to get a CPAP machine. I was told Apria Health will call us to get details. 2 Weeks passed and no one called us. I called and they said they have not received the Sleep Study. Ok, I contacted my PCP and they assured me that it was Faxed. Faxed....who uses faxes now on day when this could have been emailed. I call few days back and Apria representatives said that they still don't have it. My provider or PCP asked me to verify the fax number and it was the same they had on file. At this time it is November and finally said it was in review but they were short in personnel but someone will get back to me. December and no call after trying to get over their phone lines.
Finally they answered and they told me that "They knew it was not acceptable but that management had made cuts and had not enough people to process orders". Nothing was done at this point. It is December and no one is helping me. Total chaos at this company. Now January my company changed insurances and the original referral has expired. Now they blame the change of insurance for all these delays? What? This is February of 2023 and had my PCP contact them directly to get this resolved. Why do these companies get contracts granted? If your provider is ordering a CPAP machine ask them to use a different provider than APRIA HEALTH. They are the worst in the industry. Their manager at the Santa Fe Springs location CA never called me. Management is at fault here. They will get a lawsuit.

I was in need of a walker and wheel chair for ONE month. I was told I had to buy the walker and rent the wheelchair. After 11 months trying to straighten this account out I gave up. Apria billed to my wrong home address, to the wrong insurance company and overcharged. They turned my account over to a debt collector even though they had received repeated phone calls from my insurance company to re-submit the claims to the right address and with the correct billing codes. I've called and tried to get the account reviewed by them however they did not respond or review.
The payments Apria received were more than if I bought the 2 DME items from their own .com page. The customer service reps were shuffling me all over from one department to another when I called myself to try and get clarification on billing charges. I would NOT recommend this company to anyone. DO NOT go lightly into a contract with them if you absolutely have no other option and do not use autopay with them. Seriously this is a bad company and my dollars could have been used elsewhere.

I was billed today by Apria for $19.50 with no explanation other than for CPAP supplies from April 2022. Why was I billed almost a year later and for what? I called customer service and explained I was current on the last statement I received from them in June 2022 so why do I now owe something? She would just say insurance company just denied their claim from last year and I needed to contact them. I was unsuccessful in getting anywhere with her so just gave up and decided to call my insurer. In meantime I looked at my claims from last year and discovered that the Apria claim had been denied because they had billed for equipment they'd already been paid for. My insurer is closed now but we'll talk tomorrow and hope they can resolve this. I've had other issues with Apria in past and this will be my last time using them.
