Racial desrimination in Hospitals, give me a break

It has nothing to do with your insurance or color of skin, is has to do with the fact that all those places are understaffed and under payed. I have been in the medical field for almost 5 years and I treat all my patients the same doesn't matter if they are uninsured, medicaid or the richest people in the world they all get the same standard of care and the next one does. Try going somewhere different the results will amaze you.

fortunately i like my primary care Dr. He actually listens to me and does not treat me like cattle. i take oxycodone, valium, and soma. he knows i cant come see him every month but he will atleast let me come pick up my scripts for free. i do have some friends with medicaid and they go to pain Dr's and they were treated like cattle. they would not give him soma even though he is more messed up than i am and is missing a leg.

i used to do billing and collections for many hospitals and most of them treated anybody in the ER and would offer financial assistance. but some would send medicaid and uninsured patients elswhere. something's gotta give with healthcare but i dont think government run is the answer.
