Heart Check America
Health Screening Plus Heart Check America is scamming instead of scanning your body

I, too, accepted an invitation for a free heart scan that could detect calcium in the heart muscle. The sales representative who talked with me in the now closed San Diego office pressured me much like a timeshare salesperson would. He offered me different prices as I told him I couldn't afford it. He gave me his "rock bottom" price at last, and I paid for ten years of screening at $1500 up front and charged the remaining $1500 on a Chase card with monthly payments of 136.00 which I am still paying, of course, even though the San Diego office is long gone. And there are the yearly network dues of $249.00. Sound like a timeshare? You betcha.

I had the full body scan. I got the result except for the bone density test. I called many times to get that test sent to me. The last time I called in mid-june, the office was closed with no forwarding address. My doctor is totally unimpressed with the scan DVD, and I can't believe that I fell for it. How stupid can I be! I have never been a good resister of high pressure salesmanship.

I checked online and found that the company has gone defunct. Then I received a letter fomr Sheila Haddad who is being sued by the state of Illinois for fraud, and she told me that scans are now being done by Health Screening Plus. A number was proveded and the Arlington Heights Road address was given. When I called the number, the answering message said that I would be informed as to when a clinic in my area will be opening up. Back records of patients are being gathered, so that they can be mailed. I really have no faith in this new enterprise.

I understand that this new screening company is just the old company reformed. Beware!!!

So now I can go to Illinois from my San Diego home for ten years to get a screening. Great. ARGH# (# (#

And by the way, I contacted the BBB, but they told me that I should contact the California Attorney General's office.

I called Chase, and they told me to continue paying.!!! Big surprise there.

I think we need a class action suit.
