Hi,

I want to cater to clients/patients who will be self pay. I will not be billing insurance companies. I wanted to know what the... Read more »
You will likely need to seek out an attorney who has experience in health care law. I would inquire about whether or not a sonographer can operate independently, the type of license a diagnostic facility requires, and whether or not a diagnostic facility needs a physician in a director role. And, I... Read more »
Approved for what? You should repost your inquiry with more information.
I was checked in and taken back to the pre-op area.i had changed clothes and in the bed when i was taken to another area of the hospital and informed that my surgery was canceled because they did not have the right equipment there.
I do not see an actionable claim based upon these facts. If you were harmed or charged for this you may have some minimal recourse, but it sounds like the hospital did the right thing overall. Maybe if you traveled a long way and incurred significant costs, the hospital should reimburse you if... Read more »

I have a misdemeanor from 2004 for unlawful alcohol sale and I just got reinstated no arrest for pretrial for Medicaid fraud. I was told my name will stay on the list ten years. Can I get my records clear or do I have to wait ten years?
Your question is not clear. I guess you are trying to say your license to sell alcohol has been reinstated. "No arrest for pretrial for Medicaid fraud", means what? Does that mean you are out on bond with a misdemeanor charge pending? Call a criminal attorney to clarify your question.
To be able to deal with their insurance, bills and bank I have been asked several times if I have any documents that deemed me responsible legally for them. I'm not sure what the process is to do so and the responsibilities that come with the title of legal guardian.

If you do pass blood, make sure you take a picture of it so that you can... Read more »
