Went in for torn rotator cuff - and sent for chest x-ray Posted: Nov 4th, 2017 - 9:11 pm In Reply to: it's free only if you just sit there - ShamExam
The PA stood there and listened to me as i described the mechanism in which I tore rotator cuff (walking a huge dog who saw a cat and went after it). Asked for an x-ray so I could substantiate this as I cannot use my right dominant arm. Got to imaging center and all they had approval for was chest x-ray. Asked the tech to move onto right arm so radiologist could see it (i work in radiology - it is not unheard of to see an extremity/shoulder on cxr). She said: NO. SORRY. WE DO NOT DO THAT HERE.
So, 3 months later, I have damaged my nondominant extremity trying to do some household task and now have in severe pain.
They did insist i get a tetanus shot and blood work. Tried to get my medical records and you would think they are TOP SECRET. All the help are ESL workers and sent me on one wild goose chase after another.
This system is designed to make us give up.
The charges include taxes on everything and that is why ACA is considered a tax, has brought in 400 billion in revenue.
This is why ACA may never go away.
