Reply to comment by Kintsukuroi85 in Quest Diagnostics Refusing to Refund Overpayment Due to Insurance Reassessment by Kintsukuroi85

The lawyer knows how to find the legal representative for the corporation in your state. It's the same way a lawyer knows how to serve a corporation with a lawsuit. Any licensed attorney is able to draft a demand for payment letter.

Thank you, I appreciate that! That makes a lot more sense.

Another question: is this state-centric? We have another friend who is a lawyer who deals with insurance, but he is in another state.

A corporation has a registered representative in each state where they do business. The secretary of state maintains a database.

Okay, so my Texas friend could get in touch with Quest’s Pennsylvania rep, basically?

Yes. Your friend should be able to send a letter on fancy letter head that says pay up or else. Hopefully that gets their attention and resolves it. Anything beyond that you probably want to switch to a lawyer who specializes in this stuff.

Alternatively, you might be able to convince the insurance company to pay you directly and take it out of their next payment to Quest. The insurance companies contact with Quest should allow for that.

You have to take the bar exam for each state you want to practice in, although there is an abbreviated one for additional states after you've passed the first.
