Does My Mom Need 2 Medical Clearances Before Surgery?


my mother had a colonoscopy and afterwards her doctor told her she needed surgery. she told my mom she should 1st get medically cleared by a doctor affiliated with that hospital she was going to have the surgery. so my mom found a doctor affiliated with that hospital and got checked up. she was fine to have the surgery. that doctor faxed over everything to the surgeon’s office. the surgeon called my mom and said she got the forms and she needs to just make an appointment with her receptionist in which she did. the receptionist called my mom regarding the appointment for her surgery. she got a letter today stating the time and what she needs to do. in that letter it said she needs to be medically cleared by the clinic in that hospital. the doctors office is closed right now so i will call tomorrow to ask, but i wanted to know now, if she needs TWO clearances. she got the 1st clearance about 3 weeks ago. is it just a mistake?

Is It Legal For A Doctors Office To Refuse Service For My Child If I Owe Them Money?


I recently made a doctors appointment for my child to get a check up and a few tests done. They called me back and said that I owe money on a few past due bills from a hospital that they are affiliated with. As a result, they refused service for my child and said they can only see her if she is sick. While I would understand denial of service for myself (I currently have no insurance), I’m not sure if it is legal for them to refuse service for my child. My child has insurance and the past due bills from the hospital were for services granted to me, not my child. I understand that doctors need to make money, but they are not taking a risk in seeing my child because she has full coverage. Is there something fishy here, or is this common practice?

Why Did This Lady Ask Me To Leave Her House? Was She Racist? Was It Because Of Religious Reasons?


Why did the lady kick me out of her house?
I am a part-time Sales Rep, and I was promoting some products at a lady’s house. The lady was 90 years old. At the beginning of my demo, she got up, looked out her window, and said: “He is coming. I can’t be seen with you. You are going to have to leave my house”.
I thought maybe it was a racial issue (I am a South Asian minority). However, the lady was black, and I think she was Islamic and affiliated with an Islamic Church.
Why did she kick me out of her house?
Did it have something to do with her religion? Did she kick me out of her house because of racial reasons?
I even had asked her before I left her house. I said: “Are you kicking me out because of the color of my skin?”. She made some strange “tick-like” behavior with her head, and responded: “Yeah, your going to have to leave”. Her response sounded kind of like as if she was thinking about something else, while responding.
But, I don’t think it could of been a racial reason, because she had let me in her house, and even when I left, she said bye to me nicely and stuff. I don’t know…….given the lady’s age and other factors, the whole appointment with her was awkward, even though she did seem like a NICE lady.
I had this appointment with her back on February 15th.
I was thinking of calling this lady on the phone today, and saying to her: “Hi, i had an appointment several weeks ago with you. I was just curious of why u had kicked me out of your house so early during my demo-presentation of the products i was selling. Was it because of the color of my skin?”. However, that would be a strange thing to do, since the appointment was several weeks ago, and the lady is 90 years old, so she probably doesn’t remember or is aware of what happened that day.
And she said that she was the only one who lived in that house.
She gave me her secretary’s phone number during the beginning of my demo-presentation (before she had asked me to leave), which ended up not even being her secretary, but just her friend (I found that out, after calling the secretary and speaking with her. She told me that she was not her secretary, but just her friend). Okay.
By the way, I am a 24 year old male (just to let you know). Okay.

Also, if you are Islamic, or know a lot about the Islamic culture, please let me know whether or not her wanting me to leave her house has anything to do with that.
