I used to work for a Home Health care agency and some of these patients should never had me coming over. I would call them the night before and tell them what time to expect me and one patient told me to come later because she was in a morning bowling league. Medicare was being billed when patients were very healthy!
I did too. the people I were assigned to were just lazy old drug addicts who made me clean their house, I quit that job very quickly. I never realized it was fraud until now. They didn't even train me for that job or anything so I was clueless about the whole thing
Our mom was cared for my siblings and I for twelve years, we didn't qualify because dad's pentions was 1,250.00+200.00 after he pass away. We managed with my siblings contribute to support me so I could be mom's 24hrs caregiver. I had my limitations due to a back injury. We applied with honest answers; I never got paid for home care from the government. Now parcel disable, I can't get disability because I didn't work. What a shame that there are professional who use the system selfishly because of their status.

I have very little respect for doctors. My father was billed over $500,000.00 for his final stay in the hospital. The geriatric doctors kept trying to sell him on dialysis until the day he died. We had already privately been told by a doctor (who was only a replacement for one day when one doctor had a golf tournament to attend) that he was in end stage renal failure, that dialysis would be a waste and to prepare for the end. What they did to my mother was even worse. Geriatric doctors see insurance and Medicare dollar signs and when a patient dies, the excuse is "adult failure to thrive." May they all suffer and burn for what they put my people through at the end.
Dr's and big pharm average killing 250k people a yr! I am 75 and don't do any kind of drugs legal or illegal, I had a physical a while back, The Dr ask what i contribute my good health to! I told him i stay away from dr's and drugs!!!!! [He calmly got up and walked and never came back]
I went in for a sore throat, I spent less than 10 minutes with the actual doctor, he told me to buy a prescription from my local drug store and I was still charged almost $400 to be told to go buy pills. BS. Ever since fighting that I diagnose myself unless it’s something serious
I know its to late for your mom & dad, But you should search the sacred plant and watch all 7 parts of it! You do know that the MD in front of dr's name stands for MORE DRUGS!!!
Protector K9 she didn’t do anything wrong? The doctor’s signature literally authorized a chain of fraudulent events leading to a nurse going to her house and a bill of over $1800 falsely being charged. She lies through her teeth saying someone else did it when it’s obvious it was her intention to cash out. But yes she didn’t do anything wrong man 🤓
@@alexr.1097 except after investigation it was found that she didnt sign the paperwork. only diagnosis the patient was given was of hypertension. medicare fraud will land you in prison; if she was a fraud she wouldnt have a license right now. all she made was 41 bucks from that visit. how much do you pay your car mechanic. Re read my original comment or ask someone else to read it to you if it doesnt make sense.
Yep. I sensed years ago doctors were simply milking the system and don't care about anybody getting healthier. Dumb people still place an unrealistic amount of trust in physicians. I think they're snakes.
It's still going on, in all states especially the state of Florida. The doctors are crooks, the hospitals rob you blind, and the insurance companies are gangsta's. Let's not leave the dentist out. Some charging $2,200 from a post & crown. Its a vicious circus.
Medicare fraud happens in nursing homes too. I've had a DON tell me to put in total care in the kiosk for a resident who is fully independent. I asked her why, she told me that's how we do things. I went about the rest of my shift ignoring her words and did my job correctly. The next day I'm pulled in the office again and find out they had a staff member redo my kiosk imput.
My brother who is wheelchair bound and has cp would get his chair repaired by a man who was so mean and grouchy and would never answer his calls. One day my mom got a summary of his bill and it turns out he was billing Medicare for parts that my brother didn’t even use. He would get the parts and sell them on the side. He got fired for doing so soon after. It honestly makes it hard for the people really in need because now my brother who is indefinitely handicapped has to go the doctor every few months and get a signed paper saying he is still unable to do activities on his own as proof to the gvmt. His situation unfortunately will never change and it makes it hard for anything he needs to get approved.
An OT did this to me. Billed the government for services she never gave me. Was shocked when I found out and immediately reported her. She delayed my powerchair application with all this but luckily I’ve now had it for 2 years :)
I am homebound and can't get out of the house without assistance, my son decided to be my care giver and got it all set up for me to be my paid care giver, now I don't have to worry about getting the help I need
The opposite also happens. After 3 weeks in hospital and rehab following a serious car wreck, my doctor ordered home health care. The Medicare rep came to my home, asked a few questions, and said I was not eligible. I had plans A, B, C and F. I went without a shower forv a month because I just needed someone here to monitor in case I needed assistance. I had 5 broken bones, plus cuts and severe bruising.
Victor Bunch The only thing dumb here is you and your question. What about Maria’s comment is confusing to you. Unethical medical “professionals” across the country are scamming the government (Medicare is a government program) out of millions and millions of dollars by way of fraudulent medical billing. The physicians are signing off on fake illnesses and conditions in order to collect money for unnecessary services. That means the government will put in more regulations so that this doesn’t happen. They’ll start requiring more than one doctor to sign off on paperwork. They’ll cut back on the amount of services they’re currently covering to streamline the process. Doctors and nurses who are already actually honest and ethical will now be hesitant to request certain services out of fear they may be wrongly red flagged. Elderly people who really need the home health services will now have to go through a bunch of different hoops and verification processes. This then slows down the entire process because of all the new standards and guidelines that have to be met. Do you get it now?
Ruin whatmy mother died at 75 and she was taking a handful of pills she believed everything her doctor told her and he didn't give a damn about her it was money
To clarify: they mean it will ruin it for seniors because THOSE certain cases who NEED help, will now be considered “suspicious” Some people have a widowed parent who needs to stay with them, but no one is able to take care of them. Some elderly people can’t use the bathroom by themselves. It’s important to give care out like it’s candy. Medical care needs to be free in America and the closest thing to that is Medicare. If a company that makes more money than you could ever imagine gets “taken advantage of” well.... you are going to be old one day and when that happens you’ll wish healthcare was more accessible to the elderly.
I work in a hospital. Doctors usually do the proper diagnosis and treatment. Once the patient is discharged and the papers are forwarded to the office, a non medical staff (also a part owner of the hospital), would change some lab results and sometimes the diagnosis just to reimburse a higher amount from medicare. We informed the doctor about this and she resigned right away. Not worth losing her license over.
Oh my... that is horrible. None of the lab results should be getting changed after leaving the doctor! The None medical staff should be fined a pretty penny. Where is the honor and conscience of men?
The USA should charge a fee for billionaires. When they reach $5 billion or more, then assess them $1 billion annually. They will still have their $4 billion to $176 billion each. And the US will have $614 Billion added to the annual budget. Maybe we could get REAL Healthcare.
Did you not notice the Dr. Had a accent ? It's ASS holes like THAT that COME HEAR and take advantage of our honer system and then ass holes like you start yelling about American's but you forgot it's OUR honer system because you have no honer.
This entire country needs an over haul by those of us who know the real struggle and manage to keep it together to pay bills in full and still have fun.
Ugh, I fear for my grandma. She already told me that her doctor has prescribed so many pills that she won't even take some cause she is even suspicious 😓 How can someone with such an important position be so...shitty.
more undercover patients to catch predators like them,,,,, bring them to justice,,, they are making things harder for those who are really in need to get the services they deserve
I worked in home health care in NC when I was a newer nurse. I was fired because I could not find a qualifying nursing skill during admissions on several patients. They company STRESSED that we must find a nursing skill on each admission.
I once worked for a doctor and realized he was in Medicare fraudbut when I tried to contact Medicare they wouldn't accept the information from me. I had to be the patient calling but the patients were elderly people who were not aware of it. It is sad that you cannot contact the doctor that you worked for and or had you do the billing. But Dr Jain did go to prison later for Medicare fraud.
I'd like doctors to become rich -- by curing people and making the lives of patients better. I'm 80 and I double check everything but I know many older people can't keep up with the complexity of modern medical care, insurance, pharmacy charges, details, details, and more complex details.
It’s not just medical doctors doing this. It’s psychiatrists too. I had it happen with my old one a couple years ago.... ruined so much for me when he was caught, I was promised that none of it would come back on me but it damn sure did and I’ve still not been able to get any help that I’m needing from any doctors. It’s like I’m marked now. It’s pathetic and my mental state can’t take much more. I need help!!
Yep a psychiatrist at my Heath care facility charged me 90 dollors a month for an entire year even though I only saw him once and he was awful at his job..pretty much how do you feel sign here.
Well, this is why even though I have a port and receive IVIG infusion maintenance therapy all of my Drs have not just approved but is continuing to encourage me to keep doing my own port care and infusions on my own. Part of this is due to my extreme neuroticism about making sure everything is clean but the other part is due to the possible germs that home healthcare workers are exposed to.
@@jessicacole8404 yeah.... that is why I am now avoiding not only home health nursing care but also doctors in general. I am so petrified of getting COVID that I am subjecting myself to the vaccine even though with part 1 (Pfizer) I suffered from a CIDP exacerbation I am still getting part 2. Luckily, the poor ER (and hospital, yup crazy, I know) are expecting my return to them after part 2.
I'm not really sure how medical insurance works in the US, but here in Canada, since healthcare is free, doctors are constantly dismissing the elderly's health concerns and they like to blame it on "it's just old age". it's terrible. My grandmother almost died from a misdiagnosis, all because the dr was too lazy to actually do tests to figure out what was wrong. She ended up in the hospital with undiagnosed pneumonia a few days after her dr told her there was nothing wrong, shes just "old". Between the US and Canada, it's one extreme to the other. These are peoples lives they are fucking with. it's really sad.
I’m sorry your experience is like that. I am a Canadian who faced health challenges that would have bankrupted most Americans, especially those without private insurance. In my experience I have never had to wait for regular checkups or emergency treatment. When a patient in a hospital, I’ve had access to immediate tests and treatment, usually within minutes of the attending doctor’s request, never more than an hour or two. Canadian hospitals use triage to assess and prioritize patients, so if you go to an emergency department for a persistent cough, you can expect that your case will have less priority than a headwound or heart attack, but you will be seen. That said, a walk-in clinic or your regular physician would give you better service for minor or chronic issues, leaving emergency departments for … emergencies. When I left the hospital after a two month stay in a private room (just fortunate) and dozens of procedures and treatments, the only thing the hospital gave me was their best wishes, no bill at all to be concerned with. One thing that the Canadian medical system won’t hand out for free is optional treatments to placate people who miss their old way of life, and believe that a given treatment will return them to their youth. I have many friends and acquaintances who have had joints replaced free of charge well into their 80s, when one might argue the investment would be hard to amortize, but that doesn’t factor into the availability of procedures. If a doctor doesn’t feel a treatment is viable, Canadians are free to seek second, third, or fourth opinions, but if it isn’t viable, then they’re unlikely to get the procedure. That leads us to a skill that both Canadians and Americans must hone, which is advocacy, both to get procedures/treatment and to avoid it where appropriate. If you don’t know how to advocate for yourself or your loved one, there is a strong possibility that you’ll be ignored or railroaded in either overburdened system. Triage often errs on the patient who expresses the most dire need, and some unrepentant liars have certainly moved to the front of the line, where more stoic patients might be bypassed. Bottom line, I have paid millions of dollars in taxes and the Canadian government has probably just about broken even on me due to my use of the medical system. Prior to my health concerns, I didn’t begrudge a single dollar of my taxes because I knew they went, in part, to people who needed the medical assistance my contributions helped enable, regardless of their financial situation and insurance status. There’s no tit for tat against the American system, the average Canadian has better access to medical aid than an American, with cheaper access to necessary prescription drugs, and pays a few thousand more in taxes than the average American perhaps, but the Canadian coverage can never be denied, and having experienced both systems, the Canadian system is better run and provides a better service.
If granny really wants to do something useful she should go to work for the IRS and catch the criminals that REALLY rip us off starting with the White House!
I haven't able to get insurance for a decade. Then I fell down a case of stairs in my rental that were not to code and have a traumatic brain injury. The ER doctor in my town knew the hospital could not save me and they got me the closer facility that could in the next state. So I am grateful for an exceptional neurosurgeon team and an art of state ICU, but that is more expensive I could fathom. Good news! Within a few days, bam - I got medicaid. The hospital orchestrated the whole thing, they started paid before I was physically able to hold a pen. Now back to those stairs in my rental - they're very steep and obviously not to code. The height of the steps aren't the same of the other. Like, a rudimentary DYI bullshit job. I didn't like that, but I was just happy to find a place I could afford after escaping a nightmare marriage. Came to knew the woman who lived here before me died from falling down those stairs and it wasn't investigated bc it was the owner's MOTHER. He knew I was in a gravely injured state but why, and did let the 3 months unpaid until I was home and could get it together and pay it all back. What a nice guy! Then he found out it was the fucking stairs that nearly killed me. Who's days are numbered when he suddenly decided to sell it after 5 years with no issues? All my savings are gone, no idea what I'm gonna do. Get a lawyer? Yeah, I'm about to live in my car lol. The hospital will figure out how to get paid, but it really isn't for your protection. When you need help it only comes to you when it's lining someone else's pocket. This is a cruel life lesson.
Come on. Why do you think a lot of home health business have been shutting down. Or how about Dr. Zamora. The signs are there and you never noticed? I’m from the RGV and I’ve noticed it.
As an RN case manager who sets up home health services and medical equipment from a hospital I found this disgusting... .... this why I have extreme difficulty sending people home with needed services and equipment!!!!
Maybe as an RN you should have done more research. This was case of false accusation by ABC. Doctor was cleared of all wrong doing. Home health agency falsified the paperwork
People need to review their bill if they were hospitalized. The hospital will charge the patient for thing's that were not given to them. When I worked at a hospital, I had to review the charts on all patient's that came through the ER, Surgery or hospitalized. Patient's that have Medicare and Medi-cal will be charged for thing's that were not ordered or given. Many doctor's will over charge. I just found out that my dentist charged my Medi-cal for teeth that were not extracted. Now that I do need them extracted, I either have to pay the dentist or wait until my other dentist reimburses Medi-cal back. I know Medicare doesn't cover dental, just to show you that if you receive Medicare and Medi-cal, you really do not receive an itemized statement, unless you ask and one will see what they were charged. Thieves.
@Kari Foster I agree to some degree. Midlevels (no and Pa ) are notoriously unregulated in USA. There is no government oversight on education, no standard of education. And to top it off they have independence in most states .
Same thing happens with children and parents. We used to have “Medicaid” I think is what it was called for our kids at the time. Our children are healthy, nothing wrong with them. The doctor we were going to for them was wanting us to do all these test with our water source, (spring water) to ensure it was safe to drink. As if the previous generations in our family have ever had any problems with fresh spring water. She also insisted that we changed our kids diets to more unhealthy processed foods and cereals. She wanted us to use low fat milk. We use whole, on and on and so forth. My wife and I discussed the last visit we had and decided to find a new doctor. She did not like that phone call of us dropping her and wanting to find a new doctor. So she reported us to CPS. And in Virginia you are automatically guilty of all supposed accusations. That was a nightmare. Our rights were violated. Even after proving every allegation wrong. She didn’t like loosing that govt funded “healthcare”. We no longer pay for insurance. We have a doctor we pay cash to for every visit. And it has saved us over 800 fricking buck a month alone. Each visit for anything we’ve need has never been over 200 bucks cash yet. This doctor did not like losing her over played meal ticket she was abusing and reported us in retaliation. Hard to sue her though. CPS never discloses who makes said allegations. And after we proved the allegations wrong they didn’t investigate the doctor for wrong doing. They get paid for the same fucking thing !!!!!
They tried that with our well in NC too. They hate that they aren't able to fill our kids full of fluoride. The government is either absolutely obsessed with teeth or there is something more sinister going on with fluoride.
Yet my father-in-law can’t move around by himself, can’t leave anywhere without my assistance, has Parkinson’s disease and though he has Medicare we can’t get help for him, they don’t want to pay for anything that will help improve his life. So not fair.
Blueeyedjenn14 riiiiight? This video has me so confused. In home care is incredibly hard to get. Usually they’ll just pile them into nasty retirement homes “rehabilitation centers” they’re called now, smells like pee and there’s four patients per room, always noisy, no privacy, cafeteria food and they’re left in Depends all Day otherwise ignored. So why did this lady get it so easy?? Guess we need to find some so-called recruiters
Unfortunately, even IF the doctor WAS on the level, she could not have discussed the patient's case with the news team due to HIPPA regulations, which by the way, protect the doctors in cases like this more than the patient. It's total bullshit and this doctor should lose her licence, be fined, and serve jail time.
Happened to me in Alabama. Went in for a cold - and their office billed Medicare for a breast cancer screening in addition. I called that office and they told me... "Maybe you forgot!" I said "Lady, if I'm out of my shirt and someone is putting me between iron plates - I'd remember it!" Told her to fix it because I was going to call MC the next day...

I have very little respect for doctors. My father was billed over $500,000.00 for his final stay in the hospital. The geriatric doctors kept trying to sell him on dialysis until the day he died. We had already privately been told by a doctor (who was only a replacement for one day when one doctor had a golf tournament to attend) that he was in end stage renal failure, that dialysis would be a waste and to prepare for the end. What they did to my mother was even worse. Geriatric doctors see insurance and Medicare dollar signs and when a patient dies, the excuse is "adult failure to thrive." May they all suffer and burn for what they put my people through at the end.

Dr's and big pharm average killing 250k people a yr! I am 75 and don't do any kind of drugs legal or illegal, I had a physical a while back, The Dr ask what i contribute my good health to! I told him i stay away from dr's and drugs!!!!! [He calmly got up and walked and never came back]
I went in for a sore throat, I spent less than 10 minutes with the actual doctor, he told me to buy a prescription from my local drug store and I was still charged almost $400 to be told to go buy pills. BS. Ever since fighting that I diagnose myself unless it’s something serious
I know its to late for your mom & dad, But you should search the sacred plant and watch all 7 parts of it! You do know that the MD in front of dr's name stands for MORE DRUGS!!!

Protector K9 she didn’t do anything wrong? The doctor’s signature literally authorized a chain of fraudulent events leading to a nurse going to her house and a bill of over $1800 falsely being charged.

Mona Lisa unfortunately, in most cases that the media covered are mainly for ratings. They rarely follow up with the stories.
Look up the most recent mcallen arrest .. another Dr just went down for 100s of millions in fraud
People lie on their own, doctors abuse their power, the government loses millions of dollars every year, and tax payers have to pay taxes nothing new.
It's still going on, in all states especially the state of Florida.
The doctors are crooks, the hospitals rob you blind, and the insurance companies are gangsta's. Let's not leave the dentist out. Some charging $2,200 from a post & crown. Its a vicious circus.

Exactly! Teaching them the business model, personally.
Well stated!
Medicare fraud happens in nursing homes too. I've had a DON tell me to put in total care in the kiosk for a resident who is fully independent. I asked her why, she told me that's how we do things. I went about the rest of my shift ignoring her words and did my job correctly. The next day I'm pulled in the office again and find out they had a staff member redo my kiosk imput.
My brother who is wheelchair bound and has cp would get his chair repaired by a man who was so mean and grouchy and would never answer his calls. One day my mom got a summary of his bill and it turns out he was billing Medicare for parts that my brother didn’t even use. He would get the parts and sell them on the side. He got fired for doing so soon after. It honestly makes it hard for the people really in need because now my brother who is indefinitely handicapped has to go the doctor every few months and get a signed paper saying he is still unable to do activities on his own as proof to the gvmt. His situation unfortunately will never change and it makes it hard for anything he needs to get approved.

An OT did this to me. Billed the government for services she never gave me. Was shocked when I found out and immediately reported her. She delayed my powerchair application with all this but luckily I’ve now had it for 2 years :)
I am homebound and can't get out of the house without assistance, my son decided to be my care giver and got it all set up for me to be my paid care giver, now I don't have to worry about getting the help I need
Maybe it’s time us patients look at our own charts and exams to see what’s going on.
Doris IS an ACE! What a brave woman! I should only be so lucky to as healthy as her at half her age!
The opposite also happens. After 3 weeks in hospital and rehab following a serious car wreck, my doctor ordered home health care. The Medicare rep came to my home, asked a few questions, and said I was not eligible. I had plans A, B, C and F. I went without a shower forv a month because I just needed someone here to monitor in case I needed assistance. I had 5 broken bones, plus cuts and severe bruising.
Of course now, this will ruin it for all the seniors that really need it !
How will it ruin it for seniors?
Now how dumb is/was that,?
Victor Bunch The only thing dumb here is you and your question. What about Maria’s comment is confusing to you. Unethical medical “professionals” across the country are scamming the government (Medicare is a government program) out of millions and millions of dollars by way of fraudulent medical billing. The physicians are signing off on fake illnesses and conditions in order to collect money for unnecessary services. That means the government will put in more regulations so that this doesn’t happen. They’ll start requiring more than one doctor to sign off on paperwork. They’ll cut back on the amount of services they’re currently covering to streamline the process. Doctors and nurses who are already actually honest and ethical will now be hesitant to request certain services out of fear they may be wrongly red flagged. Elderly people who really need the home health services will now have to go through a bunch of different hoops and verification processes. This then slows down the entire process because of all the new standards and guidelines that have to be met. Do you get it now?
Ruin whatmy mother died at 75 and she was taking a handful of pills she believed everything her doctor told her and he didn't give a damn about her it was money
To clarify: they mean it will ruin it for seniors because THOSE certain cases who NEED help, will now be considered “suspicious”
Some people have a widowed parent who needs to stay with them, but no one is able to take care of them. Some elderly people can’t use the bathroom by themselves. It’s important to give care out like it’s candy. Medical care needs to be free in America and the closest thing to that is Medicare. If a company that makes more money than you could ever imagine gets “taken advantage of” well.... you are going to be old one day and when that happens you’ll wish healthcare was more accessible to the elderly.
I work in a hospital. Doctors usually do the proper diagnosis and treatment. Once the patient is discharged and the papers are forwarded to the office, a non medical staff (also a part owner of the hospital), would change some lab results and sometimes the diagnosis just to reimburse a higher amount from medicare. We informed the doctor about this and she resigned right away. Not worth losing her license over.
Oh my... that is horrible. None of the lab results should be getting changed after leaving the doctor! The None medical staff should be fined a pretty penny. Where is the honor and conscience of men?
Yes true
Most of these stories usually come out of clinics not hospitals
The USA should charge a fee for billionaires. When they reach $5 billion or more,

That is so sad :( when I get older, I will not take any pills for ailments unless I absolutely need them.
The lure of the almighty dollar

I worked in home health care in NC when I was a newer nurse. I was fired because I could not find a qualifying nursing skill during admissions on several patients. They company STRESSED that we must find a nursing skill on each admission.
Imagine all the help their old relatives are getting, while vacationing who knows where.
"There's not much honor left in the system"
I once worked for a doctor and realized he was in Medicare fraudbut when I tried to contact Medicare they wouldn't accept the information from me. I had to be the patient calling but the patients were elderly people who were not aware of it. It is sad that you cannot contact the doctor that you worked for and or had you do the billing. But Dr Jain did go to prison later for Medicare fraud.
I was billed wrong consistently from a Texas Dr but when I tried to report it Medicare couldn't have cared less.
Take their Medical Degee from them, take their money and give them some jail time..We are too easy on crime...
I'd like doctors to become rich -- by curing people and making the lives of patients better. I'm 80 and I double check everything but I know many older people can't keep up with the complexity of modern medical care, insurance, pharmacy charges, details, details, and more complex details.
Omg, prosecute these doctors. We have to stop this.
Greed and Corruption will always be with us.
It’s not just medical doctors doing this. It’s psychiatrists too. I had it happen with my old one a couple years ago.... ruined so much for me when he was caught, I was promised that none of it would come back on me but it damn sure did and I’ve still not been able to get any help that I’m needing from any doctors. It’s like I’m marked now. It’s pathetic and my mental state can’t take much more. I need help!!
Yep a psychiatrist at my Heath care facility charged me 90 dollors a month for an entire year even though I only saw him once and he was awful at his job..pretty much how do you feel sign here.
Wow! Unbelievable that the Doctor and Health Care others stealing too. Jail time and 100% money recovery needs to be completed.
Well, this is why even though I have a port and receive IVIG infusion maintenance therapy all of my Drs have not just approved but is continuing to encourage me to keep doing my own port care and infusions on my own. Part of this is due to my extreme neuroticism about making sure everything is clean but the other part is due to the possible germs that home healthcare workers are exposed to.
Home health care workers kill. I know of an old man who's father got sick from one, and died of Covid. He was set to turn 100 years old

I'm not really sure how medical insurance works in the US, but here in Canada, since healthcare is free, doctors are constantly dismissing the elderly's health concerns and they like to blame it on "it's just old age". it's terrible. My grandmother almost died from a misdiagnosis, all because the dr was too lazy to actually do tests to figure out what was wrong. She ended up in the hospital with undiagnosed pneumonia a few days after her dr told her there was nothing wrong, shes just "old". Between the US and Canada, it's one extreme to the other. These are peoples lives they are fucking with. it's really sad.
I’m sorry your experience is like that. I am a Canadian who faced health challenges that would have bankrupted most Americans, especially those without private insurance. In my experience I have never had to wait for regular checkups or emergency treatment. When a patient in a hospital, I’ve had access to immediate tests and treatment, usually within minutes of the attending doctor’s request, never more than an hour or two. Canadian hospitals use triage to assess and prioritize patients, so if you go to an emergency department for a persistent cough, you can expect that your case will have less priority than a headwound or heart attack, but you will be seen. That said, a walk-in clinic or your regular physician would give you better service for minor or chronic issues, leaving emergency departments for … emergencies.
When I left the hospital after a two month stay in a private room (just fortunate) and dozens of procedures and treatments, the only thing the hospital gave me was their best wishes, no bill at all to be concerned with.
One thing that the Canadian medical system won’t hand out for free is optional treatments to placate people who miss their old way of life, and believe that a given treatment will return them to their youth. I have many friends and acquaintances who have had joints replaced free of charge well into their 80s, when one might argue the investment would be hard to amortize, but that doesn’t factor into the availability of procedures. If a doctor doesn’t feel a treatment is viable, Canadians are free to seek second, third, or fourth opinions, but if it isn’t viable, then they’re unlikely to get the procedure. That leads us to a skill that both Canadians and Americans must hone, which is advocacy, both to get procedures/treatment and to avoid it where appropriate. If you don’t know how to advocate for yourself or your loved one, there is a strong possibility that you’ll be ignored or railroaded in either overburdened system. Triage often errs on the patient who expresses the most dire need, and some unrepentant liars have certainly moved to the front of the line, where more stoic patients might be bypassed.
Bottom line, I have paid millions of dollars in taxes and the Canadian government has probably just about broken even on me due to my use of the medical system. Prior to my health concerns, I didn’t begrudge a single dollar of my taxes because I knew they went, in part, to people who needed the medical assistance my contributions helped enable, regardless of their financial situation and insurance status. There’s no tit for tat against the American system, the average Canadian has better access to medical aid than an American, with cheaper access to necessary prescription drugs, and pays a few thousand more in taxes than the average American perhaps, but the Canadian coverage can never be denied, and having experienced both systems, the Canadian system is better run and provides a better service.
Great job abc, keep it up!
If granny really wants to do something useful she should go to work for the IRS and catch the criminals that REALLY rip us off starting with the White House!
I haven't able to get insurance for a decade. Then I fell down a case of stairs in my rental that were not to code and have a traumatic brain injury. The ER doctor in my town knew the hospital could not save me and they got me the closer facility that could in the next state. So I am grateful for an exceptional neurosurgeon team and an art of state ICU, but that is more expensive I could fathom. Good news! Within a few days, bam - I got medicaid. The hospital orchestrated the whole thing, they started paid before I was physically able to hold a pen.
Now back to those stairs in my rental - they're very steep and obviously not to code. The height of the steps aren't the same of the other. Like, a rudimentary DYI bullshit job. I didn't like that, but I was just happy to find a place I could afford after escaping a nightmare marriage. Came to knew the woman who lived here before me died from falling down those stairs and it wasn't investigated bc it was the owner's MOTHER. He knew I was in a gravely injured state but why, and did let the 3 months unpaid until I was home and could get it together and pay it all back. What a nice guy! Then he found out it was the fucking stairs that nearly killed me. Who's days are numbered when he suddenly decided to sell it after 5 years with no issues? All my savings are gone, no idea what I'm gonna do. Get a lawyer? Yeah, I'm about to live in my car lol.
The hospital will figure out how to get paid, but it really isn't for your protection. When you need help it only comes to you when it's lining someone else's pocket. This is a cruel life lesson.
This is why I’m so proud to live in Scotland where healthcare is free.

As an RN case manager who sets up home health services and medical equipment from a hospital I found this disgusting...

Maybe as an RN you should have done more research. This was case of false accusation by ABC. Doctor was cleared of all wrong doing. Home health agency falsified the paperwork
People need to review their bill if they were hospitalized. The hospital will charge the patient for thing's that were not given to them. When I worked at a hospital, I had to review the charts on all patient's that came through the ER, Surgery or hospitalized. Patient's that have Medicare and Medi-cal will be charged for thing's that were not ordered or given. Many doctor's will over charge. I just found out that my dentist charged my Medi-cal for teeth that were not extracted. Now that I do need them extracted, I either have to pay the dentist or wait until my other dentist reimburses Medi-cal back. I know Medicare doesn't cover dental, just to show you that if you receive Medicare and Medi-cal, you really do not receive an itemized statement, unless you ask and one will see what they were charged. Thieves.

@Kari Foster I agree to some degree. Midlevels (no and Pa ) are notoriously unregulated in USA. There is no government oversight on education, no standard of education. And to top it off they have independence in most states .

Thank God for the health system in Australia and especially for my personal doctor here in Callala Bay NSW. Our doctors are the best!
Same thing happens with children and parents. We used to have “Medicaid” I think is what it was called for our kids at the time. Our children are healthy, nothing wrong with them. The doctor we were going to for them was wanting us to do all these test with our water source, (spring water) to ensure it was safe to drink. As if the previous generations in our family have ever had any problems with fresh spring water. She also insisted that we changed our kids diets to more unhealthy processed foods and cereals. She wanted us to use low fat milk. We use whole, on and on and so forth. My wife and I discussed the last visit we had and decided to find a new doctor. She did not like that phone call of us dropping her and wanting to find a new doctor. So she reported us to CPS. And in Virginia you are automatically guilty of all supposed accusations. That was a nightmare. Our rights were violated. Even after proving every allegation wrong. She didn’t like loosing that govt funded “healthcare”. We no longer pay for insurance. We have a doctor we pay cash to for every visit. And it has saved us over 800 fricking buck a month alone. Each visit for anything we’ve need has never been over 200 bucks cash yet. This doctor did not like losing her over played meal ticket she was abusing and reported us in retaliation. Hard to sue her though. CPS never discloses who makes said allegations. And after we proved the allegations wrong they didn’t investigate the doctor for wrong doing. They get paid for the same fucking thing !!!!!
They tried that with our well in NC too. They hate that they aren't able to fill our kids full of fluoride.
The government is either absolutely obsessed with teeth or there is something more sinister going on with fluoride.
Damn Shame!
Or the doctor is a mandated reporter and regulations require lead testing in children.

Yet my father-in-law can’t move around by himself, can’t leave anywhere without my assistance, has Parkinson’s disease and though he has Medicare we can’t get help for him, they don’t want to pay for anything that will help improve his life. So not fair.
Blueeyedjenn14 riiiiight? This video has me so confused. In home care is incredibly hard to get. Usually they’ll just pile them into nasty retirement homes “rehabilitation centers” they’re called now, smells like pee and there’s four patients per room, always noisy, no privacy, cafeteria food and they’re left in Depends all Day otherwise ignored. So why did this lady get it so easy?? Guess we need to find some so-called recruiters
That is very unfair. There are people who get Home Health Care and don't even need it, while others are not getting the help they need.

Expose them all! Healthcare should be inexpensive and affordable! These are serious allegations!
Arrest that “doctor.”
Unfortunately, even IF the doctor WAS on the level, she could not have discussed the patient's case with the news team due to HIPPA regulations, which by the way, protect the doctors in cases like this more than the patient. It's total bullshit and this doctor should lose her licence, be fined, and serve jail time.
I already know how easy it is for s patient to sign s paper stating he ir she is fine with the doctor talking about their records.

Happened to me in Alabama. Went in for a cold - and their office billed Medicare for a breast cancer screening in addition. I called that office and they told me... "Maybe you forgot!" I said "Lady, if I'm out of my shirt and someone is putting me between iron plates - I'd remember it!" Told her to fix it because I was going to call MC the next day...
