Q: My boss had me admitted in er for piss test and i recorded it on my phone. They took blood, did a mri. Where do i go.

Now i have hospital bills, i may have trouble finding another job. My boss stayed in the room. HIPPA violations. I did work in the same hospital. I quit do to this. I have 2 hours of the admissions on video. With the mri, they irratiated my head and eyes for 30min. For a urine test. I have them admitting they don't know what to do, do the fact that the company that gives the urine test wasnt available at night. Is there corehersion here with nursing supervisor, my boss, and er doctor? On video my boss is relaying informatiom that im going for a mri from the er doctor. The doctor never examined me just did what they wanted. At the end of the video another er doctor takes over and says he thinks im fine and i can go home and maybe put this behind us.

A: Employer should pay. See if what's on the phone can be downloaded--you want backup copies in case it's erased.

Contact an attorney who handles employment issues for employees --members of the colorado assn for justice give free consults.
