064106 - Bob was very emotional this morning, angry and hurt.  He feels UCSF
064107 - has met its duty of disclosure explaining billings with complete and
064108 - clear information, required by UCSF Bill of Rights, noted on 070830.
064109 - ref SDS 14 WU5N   The UCSF billing team believes irregularities in
064110 - billings listed on 071026, ref SDS 35 X18J, are exaggerated for the
064111 - purpose of delaying payment with calls for unnecessary substantiation
064112 - of charges - he complained that UCSF is suffering damages from Kaiser
064113 - improperly "stringing out" payments owed on the referral, and
064114 - indicated that since Kaiser has not paid, the patient should pay, and
064115 - in that case, UCSF has no duty to support charges beyond telling the
064116 - patient to contact Medicare, cited in UCSF's letter on 071010.

064134 -  ..
064135 - Bob refused to discuss issues in the letter on 071027, per above.
064136 - ref SDS 0 P73O  Bob indicated patient concern about UCSF failure to
064137 - submit total costs during the meeting on 070830, and getting
064138 - additional duplicate billings on 071006, ref SDS 23 PRWW, set out in
064139 - the letter to UCSF on 071027, ref SDS 38 MA3V, was a personal attack
064140 - on his integrity, similar to his letter on 071026 questioning the
064141 - "word" of the patient side, citing correspondence on 071010,
064142 - ref SDS 35 SU53, and ignoring notice to UCSF the next day on 071011
064143 - that UCSF misled the patient about charges, possibly inadvertently.
064144 - ref SDS 28 K69X
064146 -  ..
064147 - Bob recalls this morning that he was very precise explaining billings
064148 - he presented on 070830, ref SDS 14 WP5I, responding to patient request
064149 - on 070823 for the total UCSF claim, ref SDS 13 PQRY, was only for
064150 - something called "Facility Accounts."   He feels the patient knew or
064151 - reasonably should have known payment for clinical trial services at
064152 - UCSF require billings from multiple business units, because he recalls
064153 - being precise describing charges only for "Facility Accounts."

064156 - Review shows the spreadsheet Bob submitted on 070830 has a heading for
064157 - "UCSF Facility Billing." ref SDS 14 WP5I  This was not meaningful as
064158 - presenting only a partial claim, because the document summarizes
064159 - invoices and statements that do not convey partial billing.  They all

064181 - is no other documentation or record of discussion, procedures etc.,
064182 - that indicates UCSF bills from separate business units, nor that
064183 - billings for work in January would be received in October, reported on

064187 - This morning Bob would not discuss patient lack of familiarity working

064189 - UCSF to explain billing procedures, requested in the letter to UCSF on
064190 - 071027. ref SDS 38 MA8P

064193 - Bob refused to discuss anything, and said he is writing another letter
064194 - to prove that UCSF did not mislead the patient.  He would not consider
064195 - the possibility that misunderstanding and miscommunication occurs from
064196 - lack of familiarity with work practices and procedures, and lack of
064197 - disclosure by UCSF of billing practices.

064257 -        billed by multiple business units. [reported on 071006,
064258 -        ref SDS 23 PRWW]  Millie needs the total UCSF claim to date, in
064259 -        order to determine what to pay, she needs to know the basis of
064260 -        billings, the same as if UCSF was being paid by Kaiser, all as
064261 -        explained in the letter to UCSF on October 27. ref SDS 38 MH6U

064266 -    4.  When I called this morning, Bob seems angry, insisting Millie's
064267 -        proposal to make an interim payment on 071010 should be honored

064269 -        despite subsequent information that she is being billed by
064270 -        multiple business units, has not been notified of UCSF's total
064271 -        claim, nor the basis of payments.  Normally, when a new project
064272 -        starts, if the parties do not have an ongoing business
064273 -        relationship, as here, there is a launch meeting to explain
064274 -        terms, conditions, and procedures.  This work started in
064275 -        January, and because we thought Kaiser was paying for the
064276 -        referral, there was no meeting to set parameters for billings
064277 -        and payments.

064285 -        explained terms and conditions of the work. [explained in the
064286 -        letter to UCSF on 071027, ref SDS 38 CG6H]  I met with Bob in
064287 -        your offices on 070830, and understood he was presenting UCSF's
064288 -        total claim, ref SDS 14 S69H, because that was requested in a
064289 -        call with him on 070823. ref SDS 13 JP50  We now know that is
064290 -        not true.  Bob indicated this morning he said something about
064291 -        this was only UCSF billings for facility accounts.  Since
064292 -        Millie was not aware there were other charges, and since we
064293 -        were expecting to get the total picture there was evidently
064294 -        miscommunication.  This morning Bob feels I am not being honest
064295 -        because he recalls not representing this that and other.   He
064296 -        was uncomfortable discussing issues, and insisted on writing
064297 -        another letter, etc.  When we get to this point, it is time to
064298 -        get others involved.
