Just cancelled a dr appt because they wouldn’t let me amend the affiliate hospital’s paperwork that required me to grant the hospital medical network a multitude of my rights and another of their documents that demanded rights to my data. I don’t need to go to the hospital, I just need to see the doctor. The hospital documents were not the normal HIPAA and Right to Treat. They were way longer than any other version that I’ve seen.
Don’t know what I’m going to do since that medical organization has a stranglehold in my area. I may have to take a ‘medical vacation’ just to see a dr. who is not owned by these corporate overlords
Maybe you can find a Mennonite or Amish clinic? They don't take insurance, but they are very affordable. They can administer tests and prescribe medicine, just like any other doctor.
I hadn’t thought about an option like that. I don’t think there are any Amish or Mennonite communities near us but I will look into it.
It’s pretty ridiculous that I have to worry about the medical community but this particular massive medical chain were aggressively forcing their Covid protocols on their patients and staff. I don’t trust them.
Thanks!
