Brought my teen child to the Children's south camp...

Brought my teen child to the Children's south campus urgent care clinic to treat a skin rash. The intake nurse decided to check him in as an ER visit rather than urgent care without full disclosure to us. After a simple assessment, which required no specialized ER equipment, a recommendation was made to take an over the counter antihistamine. We soon received a $1500 ER bill from Children's and $125 physicians bill from UC. Contacted Children's to get the ER visit reduced to the appropriate level of service since this was NOT a life threatening scenario. Children's administration team reviewed and denied our request. So disappointed........we will go elsewhere next time.
