Affiliate Marketing Secrets

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?

i have been seeing my psychiatrist for three years now, since i was diagnosed with bipolar. a couple of months ago i received a letter stating she will not see me due to me not being compliant with treatment. when i called to ask what it was about, she said she spoke with Margret (the person in charge of billing) (i owe 170.00) and the rest of the staff and they came to the conclusion they weren’t going to see me anymore. that means i cant see ANY DOCTOR in that office. I have been trying really hard to find another doctor with my insurance thats close to home. the ONE doctor i did find, will not see me because she is not affiliated with any hospitals and since i have been hospitalized a few times in the past she said no. another one is not taking new patients. i spoke with my current doctor and asked if she could continue filling my meds until i found someone. she said as long as i got my labs done she would do that. well i got my labs done and i tryed to get my medicine filled and she is refusing to do so. i am on lithium 600mg, klonapin, when needed, trazadone at night and seraquel 150 mg. i am out of the klonapin and lithium currently. she advised me to go to my PC which i know he will not fill meds he didn’t prescribe. I dont know what to do. my husband just lost his job, no insurance, i am worried about just stopping my meds. i just took my last dose last night. is it against the law to refuse care when the patient is on medicine and hasn’t found a replacement? and is on meds that are dangerous to just stop? i wasn’t even advised to wean myself off or anything. please help, i am desperate.

I have received multiple phone calls from a fraudulant company saying that I owe them money (I have already verified that I do not, as they said they are a debt collector for Cashnetusa.com. I called the actual company just to make sure there was nothing wrong with an account I had opened up previously. They said I was in good standing and that other customers have complained about the same type of phone calls, but it is not in any way affiliated with cashnetusa.com). I have all proof, etc of this. I was told I needed to pay back $400 that I supposedly took out in July of 2009 (which again is crazy because I did not even know there was a company called cashnetusa.com at that time). Anyways, I know that some people may suggest that I stop these harrassing phone calls by either getting a new number or blocking their calls. However, not only are they calling my work, they’re calling from multiple different numbers from area codes all around the USA. In addition, they have my social security number, bank information, and other personal information. I have put an alert out on all three credit bureaus and filed a complaint on the FTC. However, I went to file a police report as well and they refused to do so. I even explained to the police woman that not only do these scammers have my information, but they’ve also threatened to come after me. In the man’s exact words, “I will personally come after you and make you pay for this money you owe.” Please remember that there is no money I owe in the first place. These people also say their names are Mary Smith or Mike Miller, yet have the strongest Indian accent when they speak. I told the police that I’m concerned because I’m not sure where they are really located and they have access to my personal information so can find me at home and that I live alone so it is something that concerns me. She told me the best thing they can do is if someone who looks suspicous shows up at my home or work then I should call the police. She didn’t even let me file a report for my stolen information! I feel like this is completely illegal. So I have to wait for these people to either come find me or use my information to steal from me. What do I need to do?
