This means the hospitals shift the cost to those who can pay, therefore you get a bill for $500.00 for a "portable cooling care unit" which is actually an icepack! However, I didn't have to wait more than a week for surgery.

Its not even a comedy sketch anymore, it's just about the level of service you get from these sort of people these days, including the flipping questionaire
Simon Walker maybe if people had respect over the phone they wouldn’t get disrespected back. 9 out of 10 people act like complete jackasses cause they hide behind the phone. Add the fact that wages have not budged in almost a decade and voila, you get shit service cause you’re all pieces of shit that take your frustration out on someone who you do not know. I have had melanoma (cancer) removed, my gallbladder removed, and bipolar disorder. Yet I still answer the phones where I work as nicely as possible.... But most of you people don’t care. You just want someone to kiss your ass like you’re the ruler of an empire. What goes around comes around.... bitch.
Jacob Smith that's entirely America's affair, most the U.K. and EU doesn't get that type of shit because people are paid better and looked after by EU worker laws such as minimum wage and guaranteed annual leave
You know that's a deliberate strategy by companies, right? They threw out "the customer is always right" and shut down direct contact. If the customer can't get through to complain, they can't ask for a refund!

I am from Poland, and this would perfetcly fit image of Polish medical receptionist. Actually it feels better now that more western mations have to deal with the same issue.
This is so real. We all have similar experiences in hospitals . Last time I took my cousin to the hospital as he received a letter for appointment. Went to the hospital receptionist she said sorry no appointment according to the computer. We then had to request an answer from the cardiologist who sent the letter.
I worked for a hospital in PA. It is no fun, you truly wait as long as she says. The last patient was absolutely wonderful. She needed what he gave her at the end, all Carol Beer do.
Americans: we got the results: you have a fracture in your right arm, as well as an infection in an open wound on your finger. We’ll prescribe you some painkillers and some antibiotics. Aight that’ll be 1499 dollars. Meanwhile in the uk:

I think my favorite is her exchange with the old man starting when he was 10 feet away still and she didn't let up as he was walking away. She's so damn rude to everyone for no reason at all - it's hilarious.
