I was rushed to the hospital by ambulance due to a laceration on my right palm. They had to get a tourniquet to control the bleeding. After getting up the hospital they undid the tourniquet and saw the bleeding. The doctor said I don't know how to do this, and called a hand surgeon. In the mean time he has xrays ordered on my hand. Then we came back to the room and the doctor said that the hand surgeon will be in later and he said to stitch my hand up with out looking at why I am bleeding the way I am. They said if it wouldn't stop that I would go into emergency surgery. But they stitched me up kept the tourniquet on and lifted my hand over my head for a hour or more. Then hand surgeon came in and diagnosed me in like 30 seconds. 6 tendons, and 4 nerves. Didn't care to find out why I was bleeding like that. And kicked me out cause I didn't have $30,000 to hand him for surgery.
Was going to another hospital and went into shock and was driven the rest of the way by ambulance. They to couldn't believe I was kicked out in the shape I was in. Yet alone offered medical transport. I was given a surgery date and the doctor said that the other hospital had no clue what was real diagnosis was. My new doctor diagnosed me with 4 tendons, and 2 nerves. While in surgery he also found out why I was bleeding like that. I also had a completely severed artery.
Under the emergency medical and treatment labor act they did not follow protocol , is this correct?
They should of some more test to see why I was bleeding the way I was and and treated me.
And the part for dumping they didn't follow as well? Any hospital that receives medicate fundings are not allowed to dump until they are treated properly?
