    76-Year Old Charged $5 Co-Pay, During Heart Attack



    New York (AHN) - A 76-year old woman having a heart attack was charged with a co-pay of $5 while being carried to an ambulance.

    Barbara Antonelli, with breathing tubes attached to her, recalled a receptionist from the Staten Island Physician Practice telling her that she had to hand over $5 before the ambulance could leave the clinic.

    Dr. Jack D'Angelo of the Staten Island Physician Practice addressed the incident, describing the receptionist's behavior as "inappropriate".

    yep ... inappropriate
    I know that Asspimple is stoopid ... As he says, it is a FACT !

    But I can't figure out how he can breathe or type , at the same time ....

              Not surprising. Even people with good coverage get treated like this.

                  Now there is an employee following corporate policy to the extreme.

                      While having an oxygen mask attached, being strapped to a gurney and in the midst of a medical crisis, "[The receptionist] said well I hate to bother you, but could you give me the $5 co-pay? I said I don't believe this. Luckily I had a $5 bill, and I gave it to her," Antonelli told CBS 2 HD.

                                  I think I might have raised myself up on my elbows just to tell her fuck you.

                                  There's your 5 dollars:
                                  fuck.
                                  you.

                                  Spend it wisely.

                                                  I've been to the emergency room twice in the last few months. The first time they got my co-pay ($50) while I was filling out the forms. The 2nd time they at least got me to a room before immediately sending in their billing person to ask me if I would prefer to pay by cash, check or charge. I told her I would prefer to be an illegal alien and get my treatment for free

                                                  My brother was with me the 2nd time and he flat out told her "Shouldn't a doctor be here before the bill collector in an emergency?". She was not amused.
