This hospital lied about performing a procedure to stop a blockage in one of my relatives heart who have congestive heart failure. The next day after the procedure the hospital was ready to discharge the patient. I fought for them to place my relative in rehabilitation, but they refused. Then I found out that they had not performed the procedure and that her blood pressure kept getting high and her blood sugar levels were too low or too high. But they still insisted on releasing her while stating that her insurance did not cover her to stay there any longer. She has Medicaid and Medicare. Also, when I asked why the doctors had not performed the procedure to remove the blockage a staff member stated that the procedure could be done outside the hospital. The point of my family bringing my loved one to the hospital was because of her heart and difficulty breathing. The doctors that cared for my relative and the case workers were of no help. So they've sent her home and now we don't know what's going to happen to her. Btw she's in her 80s.
