Social Security/cms Overruling Legal Name Change.
Location: Rhode Island
I had a valid name change approved with the state of Rhode Island last January and updated with Social Security, and my gender marker changed, in February. Other official documents, credit, etc also were updated.
I found out a couple months ago that my doctors were not able to bill my insurance (Medicare/Medicaid) due to a mismatch in my personal information. Reached out to my insurance who told me that my legal name and gender were reverted by the federal government. State information still valid. I've had endless issues with my insurance that has disrupted my care.
I reached out to the Attorney General's office to reach out to my insurance about the issue, with written permission to have access to any and all personal or case info that they could need access to, and their office got back in touch with my yesterday and confirmed with me that the federal government had in fact reverted my information and are not recognizing my name change or gender marker and are only recognizing my original birth certificate information.
Unsure of where to go from here since the AGs office doesn't directly rep folks but simply investigate and have state cases where appropriate.
