This hospital will not see you if you do not have insurance within their network. They don't care whether it is an emergency or not. If you mention that you will pay out of pocket, they will sum up all the procedure they ASSUME you will need and ask you to pay before being diagnosed or seen a doctor. I am a high risk pregnant mom, but today I was told that they won't make my appointment until I make a payment of $68,000 in full. This is illegal and no one should pay without being diagnosed to know what it is they will be treated for. This is very inhumane.

Thank God this not the only hospital in Houston.
