So because I got my MRI done at a private radiology clinic, I asked my orthopedic if his radiologist could provide a second opinion on the images

He said sure no problem

Then I get a bill for the radiologist, ok cool

I message them saying hey I haven’t received the radiologist report? 

They go, oh, yea it’s our protocol that you need an appointment with your Dr in order to go over the results

I told them, no thanks, just provide me with the radiologist report. Until then the bill will remain unpaid and disputed 👍

The biggest advice I can give you when dealing with healthcare system is to always remember that THEY work for YOU

Don’t accept the status quo just because they say. Demand exactly what you want and do it with conviction

Now maybe they really can’t release the report to me, fine. But I’m going to be a real pain in the ass to them to find out
