Hospital bill stuns slain student's parents
http://www.sacbee.com/topstories/story/2301084.html
By Sam Stanton sstanton@sacbee.com On Saturday, 10 days after Scott Hawkins was beaten to death inside his dormitory at California State University, Sacramento, his parents got a letter in the mail. It contained a bill from the UC Davis Medical Center for $29,186.50 along with a form letter addressed "Dear Patient" that implied they were indigent and stated that the hospital no longer could provide them services. "UC Davis can no longer provide follow-up care or any other non-emergency care to you," it read. "Please go to a County clinic for all non-emergency care or to get a referral to another doctor." For Gerald and Elizabeth Hawkins, it was just too much to bear. [Continues at link] |
I cannot imagine losing one of my sons in any manner, let alone the way these poor people lost their son. The bill and letter is just rubbing salt in their wounds.
I hope they can find peace in all of this eventually. Oh, and the hospital needs to do some major ass kissing. |
Yikes. Not exactly good PR.
