Doctors
As some know I recently made a visit to the hospital.
By the time I arrived I was feeling fine and it was determined that the hospital would just determine what had caused the problem I had. I like I said I was feeling fine when I got there and from the 2 EKG's they had from On-call and the ambulance they knew immediately that what ever the episode was it was over.
I saw 1 cardiologist in the ER who just told me about the tests that they might order for me. From there I got a room for the night so they could keep an eye on me and in the morning do a nuclear stress test.
After the stress test a doctor came in, introduced himself, and told me to see my primary care doctor and take what ever he prescribed. After I laughed at him and told him I valued my health to much to do that he left. Total time less then 10 minutes.
Today I got his bill. $908! $64 twice for interpreting and reporting an EKG and get this, $780 for 1 hour of critical care:confused:
Need I mention that at no time was I considered in critical condition.
The only thing that was considered critical was in not eating or drinking anything after midnight because of the stress test.
Naturally I called the billing company to find out how to dispute the bill.
Bottom line, he may get the $128 for reading the EKG's but he can B.M.S.M.A. if he thinks I'm paying him 780 for telling me to see another doctor and let them poison me.
This is one of the reasons we have crap health care in the U.S.
I forgot to mention this wasn't even the doctor that I was assigned to.
The doctor I was assigned to saw me twice. Once in the morning to update me on what they thought was going on and to explain the stress test. He also gave me the results of the test, told me what to do if it happened again and discharged me.
