This will make you angry

Flat out crook. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/11/10/upshot/covid-testing-doctor-fees.html
Dr. David Murphy of Bedford, NY set up a drive thru COVID test in the parking lot of the local train station. A family of 4 went there and got tested for COVID. Their bill was over $6,800. They were even charged $480 for the phone call telling them they tested negative for COVID. The doctor, without them knowing about it, also tested them for many other various illnesses because he felt it was his duty to give them a wide variety of respiratory tests....again without them knowing about it. It is estimated over 60,000 people also were tested by Dr Murphy at this same parking lot. Their insurance covered most of the bill.

That is so ridiculous. Can’t you comment on anything without including some inappropriate wild political observation. Get over it,

No I’m not a “ little liberal snowflake “. I am a 91 year old man who has lived through many changes in national elections and have prospered under all. It is my observation that all subsets of our society have roughly the same proportion s who are crooks.I am just sick and tired of the constant injection of political observations in every discussion. Oh, and by the way, you will note that I am not afraid to attach my name to my postings.

You must be thrilled then that one of Biden’s pandemic advisors, Dr. Emanuel, believes life past age 75 isn’t worth it.

Hadn’t heard that. I’ve got 16 year data points to prove him wrong. I’ll talk to Joe and see what we can do about that Doctor??.

Not angry or even surprised. This is so common for the average American to be taken advantage of by people who claim to have your best interests at heart. Unfortunately, that has caused me to be cynical and so suspicious of anyone who claims to be doing something to make my life better. I just feel so bad for my kids and grandchildren cause while my life will soon be over, they will have to continue on.

That lowlife should have his license suspended and put in jail for being a thief. People like him have absolutely no place in today's society. Taking advantage of people during this time, especially when the test are free. At least here in Illinois they are, as I believe they are nation wide.

Evidently the Covid tests are only free in big cities. It is ASSUMED that only poor people live in Big cities.
Woodstock is a small town about 30 miles north of Atlanta and one of my 'renters' had to get the Covid test for her and her daughter.
They were charged for this test that I thought were supposed to be free. This test was given by American Family Care Woodstock?.

Or would this shady deal be too small for him?
“The big guy” wouldn’t get a large enough cut.

Wow. So little facts presented and an obvious media slander attempt against this doctor.
Most hospitals in our area run “drive though” Covid testing to limit risk of spreading. When my local hospital tests for Covid they run a “respiratory infection panel” that tests for several respiratory pathogens. Nothing unusual about that. These are the “unrequested tests” reported. My bill for being tested runs well over $1000 each time I get tested, which I must do every 2 weeks.
You guys think this doctor is “pocketing” all of that money? No, it’s going to reimburse a lab that did the testing- if done in house he has to pay for the equipment and testing supplies. Most outpatient labs are barely profitable. The number of people tested just speaks to the fear in the community whipped up by news media in the first place. We do limited testing in our office, and refused to set up Covid testing, because in the end this is usually a money loser for a doctor’s office.
You guys should really not take ANYTHING reported by the NYT at face value.

I saw this couple being interviewed on TV. Not just NYT. They were adamant they wanted covid tests ONLY. It's a SCAM. No gray area. It's black and white.
Cry me a river on doctors losing money.

There is a big difference between sending a bill and getting paid. That bill would have gone into the deep 6 file!
