I am writing in regards to a refusal of treatment by Mission MyCare Now in ********* ** on 8/19/2022 shortly before 5:30 PM. My son, ******, had a fish hook lodge into his finger and would not come out. Knowing an urgent care would be our best bet based on our plans ** expenses, we drove to MyCare Now. We noticed they closed at 6pm and I checked the time and we had arrived about 5:25pm. Walking in I was greeted by the front secretary who stated, sorry we are at capacity and directed us to the hospital. I turned and looked into the parking lot and noticed 2-3 cars and again saw the office hours with them closing in 30 mins on a Friday. My son in tears and freaking out because he took this as it cant be removed. I explained to her we could not afford the ** costs and while it needed removed this was not an ** visit event. She was unwavering with an 11 year old in pain and tears as she refused us. I was livid and left without saying a word and drove my son to Mountain Lakes Medical Center in *******, ** who had removed the hook within 15 minutes of our arrival. I did not visit the Mission ** at Angel Medical based on the unprofessional treatment we had just received. I do not blame the front secretary as I believe she was only doing what she was told to due by the doctors on staff. We received great treatment at Mountain Lakes Medical, however, due to ** costs and the refusal of treatment by Mission MyCare now, we were left with a $1,005.93 bill instead of an ** copay. I will absolutely pay anything to get my son the care he needs but knowing they could have easily treated him is extremely upsetting. It is my opinions these actions are selfish, immoral, unethical, and reprehensible. I tried my best to let this go and sat on it and became more upset the more I thought about it. In my opinion, Mission Hospital should be responsible for the difference in the charges for myself and for what the visit cost my insurance plan vs what the urgent care visit would haveBusiness Response

I am rejecting this response because:This issue is telling me they did not even read the complaint. We walked in and were refused service. How would I have an account number?
I have visited in the past myself, ************************* **** DOB 11/27/1982. ****** ***************** would have been the patient with a birthdate of 1/21/2011.
This entire issue is Mission refused to even see my child and have apparently even refused to understand or read the complaint.

I am rejecting this response because:I have reached out to Mission and left messages and still haven't heard anything from them.
Also, attached are the EOBs that were received due to failure to see or treat. Had they seen my son as they should have, it would have cost us $10. These bills total over $1000.

I am rejecting this response because:Mission My Care Now (****** was the representative), contacted me back in late October and admitted the doctor was as fault and instructed his receptionist to turn any patients away and state they were full. There was a promise to make it right which I assumed was them taking care of the $1000 bill they cost me due to their actions yet I am still receiving bills and they will not respond to calls or certified mail.

On Sept 7 2022 we received a bill from Medicredit saying we owe $50.00 from August 11, 2022. We were not in town then. Also, the office has our insurance information. They have been charging us for a hospital visit.My daughter has been seeing a doctor for Scholosis. She has not been given a room or a bed but I have paid two bills $401.00 for hospital visits and two bills $41.37 for doctor part. Then today I get past due on what the copay was for. This is not correct. How can they charge for hospital visit and a co pay?Business Response

Mission Hospital asked for payment up front because they did not think my insurance would cover the surgery I needed. They filed the insurance, and it did cover it. They were paid months amonths ago. They admit that they owe me an $11,900, but I have gotten no response when I've asked for a timetable. I've called numerous times and always told that it is pending. Surgery was in January and they were paid by April. Today is July 28th.Business Response
