Last year my wife went to Flower Mound Emergency Center for chest congestion. The nurse took her blood pressure and temp. Dr Timothy Laseter wrote her a RX and told her not to fill it. About a month latter we started to get bills in the mail for over $2000.00 that included chest X-rays. It took about 3 months to get it sorted out and they reduced the bill to $140.00. Which is still crazy for the lack of care provided. Now its 6 month latter and we are getting more bills from the DR. He wants another $240.00 for walking into a room, writing a script and telling a patient not to fill it. It feels like I'm on the wrong end of a bad joke. The verbiage they use is that because the Dr wrote a script, it is considered a level 3 emergency room visit. The last time I checked, having your Blood pressure and temp taken are the farthest thing from "Emergency Care" that I can think of. This place uses crafty verbiage to take advantage of both you and your insurance company.
Beware
