My recorded phone calls to Christ Health CEO Dr. Robert Record MD can be heard in this video. As a patient & customer I found myself subjected to common health care fraud schemes including "PHANTOM BILLING" & "UPCODING" in 2019 visits at their Woodlawn & Old Springville Road clinics. I have scanned in my original medical records and share my story. Partner Ascension St. Vincent's was recently rebranded to UAB St. Vincent's. Dr. Terry Daniel Smith (aka: T. Daniel Smith, aka: Terry D. Smith) went on to work for Andrews Sports Medicine and was last connected to the UAB Medicine St. Vincent's Trussville location off Happy Hollow Road (I encountered many separate scams dealing with health providers in this building / address (see my other videos))
1 Year On: a letter I was told by their lawyer would be sent to me after a scheduled August, 2023 board meeting never arrived (August 2024, 1 year later). She refused to help me correct a laundry list of service and negligence issues in my visit. I also ask why a medical doctor I had no interaction with (Beverly VonDerpool) strangely signed off on my records days following my visit. This was AFTER I had informed their staff I was misdiagnosed by partners Ascension Saint Vincent's Birmingham, AL. for an injury that will takes hundreds of thousands or millions of dollars to treat (broken skull / head trauma).
Lawyer Deborah Pickens told me in a recorded August, 2023 phone call Christ Health was not liable for negligence damages I incurred in botched visits with their MD and NP in 2019. She then invoked federal protections by the United States government (that apparently excuses their negligence) AND invited me to consult a lawyer myself. She tells me outright that because of their status, any claim I had against them would need to be made against the U.S. Federal Government. She does not possess a medical license to know if I received appropriate care or not but failed to name one of their practices many doctors or nurses who drew such a conclusion following an investigation she claims was made into my issues.
5 months after speaking to their CEO Dr. Robert Record MD (& 2 months following being connected lawyer Deborah Pickens I am still awaiting a letter containing the results of an August, 2023 board meeting regarding several outstanding issues that arose during my 2 visits with their NP & MD in 2019.
A "He said she said" exchange of "who called who and when" consumed valuable time in both this call and the previous call with CEO Dr. Robert Record.
I had a broken skull injury I almost died from - 3 inch long insects & worms grew in the wound (SEE X-RAYS / MRI / CT IN VIDEOS). Pickens confirmed in a recorded telephone call that a letter containing the outcome of an investigation & hearing into my issues would arrive shortly following. As of October, 2023 I am still awaiting this letter.
