If you file Chapter 7 on medical bills can that medical facility refuse to treat you again?
The compassionate response would be no. However, any private hospital can refuse to treat anyone, the exception is a "life or death" situation. Even so a patient can be transferred to another facility as soon as they are stable. This is why many hospitals in metro areas are designated Trauma Centers. They then are obligated to treat anyone in need of medical attention. Legally, no hospital can turn away a patient with an acute condition. As above, they can (and probably will) transfer the patient when they are stable. The point of this rule is to allow anyone who absolutely needs acute care (heart attack, stroke, etc.) to get that care, but to discourage people from using emergency services for primary care. A good example of this is diabetes. A patient may present to an ED with an acute issue like a diabetic coma d/t hypolycemia and they will be treated. That same person can not show up 2 weeks later asking for refills on the diabetes meds from the ED rather than seeing a physician in a clinic on an outpatient basis. The cost of medical services in the ED is much higher than a clinic. This rule helps to keep hospital charges down by preventing frivolous use of the ED. It makes healthcare cheaper for everyone.
What is the admitting diagnosis?
The admission diagnosis (or admitting diagnosis) is the initial "working" diagnosis documented by the:patient's admitting or attending physician (who may be their primary care physician) who determined that inpatient care was necessary such as for:treatment of a condition diagnosed in the office today (e.g., acute exacerbation of chronic asthma).elective surgery, which has already been scheduled (e.g., elective tubal ligation).emergency treatment.injuries and any number of other causes of morbidity.A "working" diagnosis is one that is what treatment and studies are based on until a definitive final diagnosis is determined through the studies, procedures, and consultations during the inpatient stay.NOTE: The patient's primary care physician (who is responsible for admitting the patient to the hospital) or his office staff contacts the facility's patient registration department to provide the admitting diagnosis. A physician's office staff includes medical assistants, nurses, physician assistants, nurse practitioners, and so on, any one of whom may be instructed by the primary care physician to communicate the admitting diagnosis to the hospital's patient registration department. Next, the patient registration clerk (who is employed in the hospital's patient registration department) keyboards the admitting diagnosis into the admission/discharge/transfer (ADT) software. That admission diagnosis (along with all other patient information) appears on the face sheet of the inpatient record.facility's emergency department (ED) physician who provided ED treatment and determined that inpatient care was necessary (e.g., trauma, heart attack, stroke, and so on).NOTE: The ED physician documents the admitting diagnosis in the ED record, and the patient registration clerk keyboards the admitting diagnosis into the admission/discharge/transfer (ADT) software.
