What is the name of your state? Utah
I am unsure where I would find an answer on this, so I ask here. Sorry if this is the wrong forum for, not sure where else it would fit.
This is problably a really dumb question, but I am a mothers son, who is uneducated on this, and would like to help in any way I can - besides paying bills =P
In the past few days, there has been conflict between my mother and her husband. As my mother was up all night, she wanted to get some sleep, and took 2 pills of her medication, where as a normal dose consists of a 1/2 pill. With information that was told by my mother's husband (who was away due to the conflict), my mother's friend was concerned that my mother had attempted a second suicide attempt, the first being several months before.
Anyways, ambulance comes, cops come, then after 20 or so minutes of doing whatever they do.. a result was that she was in all normal conditions. Pupils reacted and moved, she was responsive to even light voice command; everything fine, and just very tired.
The main doctor guy calls for some assistance on what to do, and they say to bring her into the hospital. As we know, this causes bills. Big bills. My mother was very responsive and awake at this point, but still a little drowsy.
She refused to go on the above claim. She could walk, talk, and even ask me the time I worked that day.
Point still stands, however, that they MADE her get in the ambulance, which is an additional charge. They would not let her get driven there. They MADE her to go the hosiptal. Even though she was fine.
Is this legal? What could have happened if she refused? Is there anyway to fight this?
