I was attended in the Forest Hills hospital emergency room on 1/22/10 by a physician who took my pulse and ask me a few questions about how I felt, then he prescribed me medicine which I purchased at a local pharmacy. This hospital is charging for services I never used, they did not use any machines or provided me with nursing services. Why are they billing this exurbentant amount of $1, 136 which my insurance paid $928.57 and Im responsible $207.43. I think that these types of services are not fair for a consumer if they are not rendered. All I did in the emergency room is sit on a chair and talk to a doctor. Can you please ask them to waive the charges they are imposing of $207.43.
