Patient
My mother has seen Dr Dy for many, many years. We have always had a good relationship with his office. However, yesterday was a different story. My mother lives on a fixed income. She has Medicare and a supplemental insurance. She never has to pay for visits or hospital stays. Mind you, she owed his office $0. We went yesterday and they said that there was a $150 copay for Medicare. I told them she wasn't prepared to pay that today. They refused to see her and to her medical needs and wanted to reschedule!!! I know the deductible is a Medicare thing and can't be helped. But them refusing to see my mother and seeing to her medical needs over a $150 deductible is unacceptable. I will be filing a formal complaint against his office. Since when, in this country are the elderly denied basic medical needs due to lack of funds!!
