I think you might have missed \”stop bad faith\’s\” message…or at least I read it a different way and thought maybe i could clarify???? if i\’m wrong, i apologize.
I think what he was saying is that sometimes the insurance companies are the ones that wrongly deny procedures or surgeries when LEGITIMATE doctors are saying they LEGITIMATELY need to be done.
Case in point, 2 years ago, after an AKG, the doc realized his Karotid (sorry for spelling) arteries were more than 95% clogged. The doc chose not to do an angioplasty…they just wanted to clean them out without putting a stent in….they thought the stent would be too much for him. fast forward a year and a half, the arteries were clogged again (this time from scar tissue). when the doctor told the insurance company my dad would need to have the angioplasty done, they denied it at first. My dad went to bed every night for three months scared he was going to die in his sleep until the insurance company decided he could have the surgery.
I think that\’s what \”stop bad faith\” was referring to.
Sorry, I just read what I typed….the story is about my father….

I suppose that you are privy to information the rest of us don’t see. I thought Chan was owner of the ASC and, therefore, had access to the billing portion as well. I agree that there are two sides to every story, however, the allegations are pretty serious and sound like they’ve been going on for a long time.
In the end the doctors will all be legally vindicated of fraud allegations. The facility fees of surgery centers and hospitals are not the responsibility of the doctors. Therefore, the $30M scam as alleged is BOGUS. In healthcare, insurance companies do not pay charges and the three doctors combined facility fee collections totalled approximately $5M. None of the three doctors had access to the facility fees.
The Orange County DA claims the doctors performed unnecessary surgery but where is the assault and battery charge if true. Screening colonoscopies and diagnostic laparoscopies are diagnostic procedures as well as surgeries.
The “bad guys” have already plead guilty to their crimes. In total 17 people including the three doctors have been arrested and charged with crimes in this case. The DA’s star witness is a convicted felon?
Is the DA really committed to busting doctors? Over 25 doctors in Orange County perfoemd cases at Unity.
This is a sensationalized case involving an overzealous DA who will lose in a court of law.
The lesson here is that if you hang out with dogs prepare to get fleas.

Hi Mack:
I have been following this story as well. Could you let me in on some of the
inside” things that you are aware of? I used Dr. Rosenberg in the past and thought that something was “fishy”.
Thanks Tom
