Ok James, you've made your point, but just like every story, there are TWO sides, right? I have already addressed this same matter that you encountered at LabCorp with another person on this message board, i.e. regarding an outstanding balance due before service can be rendered for your blood tests, and you being informed by the LabCorp Patient Service Center phlebotomy staff that upon them inputting your order into the computer, it showed that you needed to pay your previous bill, etc. Now, with that said, let me tell you this, and you (along with everyone else like you that has had this encounter at LabCorp, LISTEN UP AND TAKE NOTES). First, keep in mind that at any LabCorp lab, EVERYONE who works in any of these company owned and operated labs is a licensed phlebotomist, NOT A COMPANY MANAGER, NOT A BILLING REPRESENTATIVE, ETC. They are phlebotomy personnel that are required to comply with any policy that the company (LabCorp) puts in place. You did a good job of describing the encounter in detail about what happened. When the phlebotomy staff inputs your doctor's order into the computer system, IF there is any outstanding balance that YOU owe from any of your previous visits to LabCorp, a screen automatically pops up and let's the phlebotomist ordering your tests know that that outstanding balance MUST be collected on BEFORE they may proceed to order your tests on the computer, draw your blood, and send it in for testing. IN FACT, LabCorp has designed their computer system so that it LOCKS on the "Outstanding Balance Screen" which MUST be settled by payment over the counter, and if payment is not made via that LOCKED screen that acts as the payment platform itself, it WILL NOT allow the phlebotomist to continue inputting your order. GOT IT?? LabCorp phlebotomy staff, via LabCorp Management, has been instructed NOT to call the billing office to discuss this matter regardless of the patient's reason of contention of the balance due, and that payment must be made. The patient is allowed to contact the billing office ONLY, NOT THE PHLEBOTOMY STAFF, and the reason why is that if the phlebotomy staff gets on the phone to call the billing office, then other patients waiting for service can not be seen in a timely manner, and also, the details of this needs to be by direct interaction between the patient and LabCorp's billing office so that it is first hand information being given to the patient, or so that the billing office may receive additional information directly from the patient which may be needed to resolve the previous bill. When you needed to do, and what the LabCorp phlebotomy staff should have informed you of, is that the company procedure is for you to either clear the bill with payment over the counter via credit card or check, so that the LOCKED screen may be cleared, and your order completed, so that they phlebotomist could proceed to draw your blood. None of this is convenient or easy, however it would have prevented you all the aggravation of what you described of sitting and waiting, sitting and waiting, sitting and waiting, and being ignored. On this last point, you need to realize that the phlebotomist at these labs have scores of tasks to perform in a limited amount of time, including processing of specimens in a timely manner in the back area of the lab, so they are continuously on the move for the sake of everyone who is there waiting for service, and a host of other tasks that need to be handled. You on the other hand, assume that YOU are the only one present in the office that needs service, and that the staff should be focusing on YOU ALONE, whic is very selfish and self-centered of you. If you had of paid your outstanding balance to LabCorp BEFORE you got to the Lab that day on Aug 9, 2008, you would have not run into this problem, so it is actually YOU who is responsible for what happened that day, because as in all situation in the general public in America, ALL COMPANIES HAVE POLICIES AND PROCEDURE REQUIREMENTS, and LabCor is no exception. You ran into a "company policy" barrier that momentarily prevented you from getting your blood drawn and it represented an inconvenience to you, but again, it is YOU who should have paid your bill, either when you first received it from LabCorp in the Mail, which obviously you ignored and didn't bother to call the number on the bill to ask what is was about, and then you got confronted with this same bill at your time of service that day at Labcorp. So, again, and again, IT IS YOU who is responsible for and the cause of what happened that day, NOT THE PHLEBOTOMY STAFF AT LABCORP, NOT LABCORP MANAGEMENT, ETC. It almost sounds like you think that you didn't need to pay your bill, or make the necessary arangements with LabCorp (i.e. updated insurance information, etc,) to see to it that they got paid for services that they had already provided you with, unless of course you think that a company like LabCorp should provide you with FREE service. What is see in all of this is that YOU had an opportunity to handle this matter long before you got to LabCorp that day, due to the fact that I'm aware of when a screen pops up like that and it shows an outstanding balance due to LabCorp and the phlebotomy staff has to confront you with this, it means that THE OUTSTANDING BILL THAT YOU OWED FROM YOUR PRIOR VISIT IS ALREADY IN COLLECTIONS AT LABCORP AND IS ALMOST READY TO BE FORWARD TO A COLLECTION AGENCY, AND AT LEAST TWO NOTICES HAVE BEEN SENT TO YOU BY MAIL TO INFORM YOU OF IT. You got the bil, you even read the bill, but you didn't bother to call about the bill thinking that it was not important, or thinking that the service you had should have been FREE. So, James, YOU HAVE NO ONE TO BLAME BUT YOURSELF FOR NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR MONEY YOU OWED LABCORP BEFORE YOU GOT TO THE LAB THAT DAY on August 9, 2008. GOT IT? Obviously you didn't get it, by reason of your irresponsible post regarding this matter, which further shows how irresponsible and self-centered you are. This is in response to the 9 AUG 2008 post-”LabCorp-No Way To Treat A Patient” incident at the LabCorp facility in Glen Burnie, MD., written by the original poster “James.”

And to make things worse... every once in while they say, "by the way, you'll be working alone today." I ask if i can go manual for the day since we see about 80 people and the answer is NO. We have to catch those unpaid balances. All I ask is for people to be a little more patient and curtious. At times I am by myself and having to draw screaming kids while people are standing at the desk saying, "hello is anyone here?" is rude. There are some and I mean very few that are nice but most of the time everyone asks how long the wait is. We dont know. Seriously. I once had two people in the room and i said about five or ten minutes. My next draw had about 20 crazy tests and then was a hard stick and to top it off she fainted. By the time i was done 45 minutes had passed and i had a room full of angry people. Please people when you go into one of our sites be a little nicer. We dont set the rules. We hate credit card capture. We hate a lot of what goes on. But we need to follow rules to keep our jobs and i am not going to lose my paycheck for your 5 dollar balance.

This is part of the pressure we face on our daily jobs at labcorp. we get shit on by patients and by our lovely management. To all who have complained about our rudeness-let me say- how would you all feel at 7am not being fully awake, having a line of 20 people waiting for you,all want to be first. Then totaling the daily count at 70 people seen between 2 patient service technicians and one computer and one draw room? that is what i deal with daily. it ain't easy. especially when everybody has to be first, you are constantly asked "how long is the wait?", you are trying to deal with problems on an order, on the phone between a dr office and costumer service just for one problem patient, and the whole time you have people just staring at you paper in hand, ignoring the fact I AM BUSY WITH ANOTHER PATIENT!! hello?? and that isn't rude?? if you see i am busy, just take a damn seat, and when i am done, approach me!! AND how about NOT shoving your paper in my face OR just throwing it on my desk when you sign in??? And people don't see where our pressure builds?? and how we are not always so happy smiley like a WalMart greeter??? we deal with rude and nasty people everyday. Toppled with our management constantly down our throats with threats, and changes, and god forbid if they throw something new at us, and we don't get it right on the first try!! OH and how about the fact that we are severely under staffed at all our locations in our division?? to the point that our supervisor is more of a patient service technician than a supervisor?? she can't get her meetings in, she can't do her trainings, she is pulled in 50 different directions, and is limited in her abilities! not her fault her bosses wont get us help!

Without any notifications, I find I have a $6 balance on my bill and they (Labcrap) decided to force you to give them your credit card number so they my charge your card (in perpetuity, or until the card expires, however I totally believe this organizations would still attempt to charge your expired card in a New York minute) once your insurance company has paid their portion or, since Labcrap now has your card number, they can charge you at any time they feel appropriate, without your knowledge. I found this totally assinine for refusal of service for a $6 balance when they make hundreds off my blood draws each and every month. They wouldn't take cash...they wanted that credit card. Well, when they USED to work for me. They can rot in hell now. There are many other fine and reputable organizations I can now deal with!

Did labcorp do your GYN exam? Another laugh. Routine annual exam usually = pap smear. That is a LAB test, and YOUR DOCTOR MUST ORDER ALL LAB TEST THAT ARE DONE. Did he think your husband was unfaithful from a slimmy yellow,green or smelly vaginal discharge? If he considered that he would have order some additional test like Chalmidia/GC culture as well, reguardless of your proclaimation of his FAITHFULNESS. I hate the high cost of medical test. I just had 1600 dollars worth done, thank God for insurance that paid all but around 200. Only thing that really BOTHERS me, is discounted price my statement shows to the insurance company........wayyy wayyyy below what I WOULD have to pay privately. Without insurance, I couldnt afford those test. That is my only complaint with LABCORP, why discount to the insurance company, why not a discount to the uninsured? Otherwise, I have no complaints with LabCorp. Lesie and the GYN exam. Did labcorp do your GYN exam? Another laugh. Routine annual exam usually = pap smear.

This may be a great phlbotomist, who just couldnt get her vein, someone else might come right behind her and get the stick, as well as SHE may go right behind someone who missed the stick and get it. As a mom and a nurse, I understand both sides. When the labtech said she would call the party back, was that the right thing to do, or did you want her to continue TALKING.

Maybe that all seemed rude to you, but she might have been a great person, in an unknown situation. Anyway, you had a bad perception of what may have been an innocent situation. Unfortunate, as none of us want to see our children or anyone else hurt. Do you think she HURT your child on purpose? A note to you, if she did withdraw the needle out of her arm before re-advancing as veins can roll and squirmy child doens't help, then it would have hurt twice as much. “THEY WERE SO MEAN” I don’t work for LapCorbs, wish they would give me a discount on my bill,for typing this.
