Review of Havasu Regional Medical Center

My son had stomach pains for a few days, naturally over the weekend. As a last resort, we went to the ER. They did a CT Scan of his abdomin, took a few vials of blood, an IV and then diagnosed him with an intestinal infection. No prescriptions or follow up tests. Just go home and follow a bland diet. The bill?? Just shy $13,000. My insurance paid a little over $10,000. I am angry that my insurance paid this insane amount of money when the services do not warrant the ridiculous fees. A $13,000 tummy ache?? Seriously?? I will never step foot in that hospital again. Kingman Regional or Vegas is where we will go. It's not that far of a drive and the drive is definitely cheaper. There needs to be a law for what hospitals can charge. They dont a crew people over like this in Vegas or in Kingman. This for profit hospital is going to put itself out of business. Moral of the story....dont go to HRMC unless you want to put up the mortgage on your house and/or sell a kidney and you will still receive mediocre care. And I dont want some stupid comment from HRMC telling me to call them to discuss this either....make it right for all you screw and put in the poor house because they come to you in times of bad health or emergencies. You know who we all are to bill us, use that info to make it right. Scandalous """UPDATE- Just checked the billing....they billed my insurance as my son as a level 5 . From what I have researched level 5 is highest level for care. How is a stomachache level 5?? No surgery, no prescriptions, no follow up care but level 5???
