Do You Know Someone In This Situation…Hospitalization Hang-ups?

An attorney called me about one of his clients. Her brother was in a facility. When she visited, his condition appeared to have deteriorated.  She thought her brother should be seen in the emergency room. Yet, neither the facility nor the hospital was willing to admit him. She needed guidance on how to advocate for him. Further questions revealed that her brother had recently been treated in hospital. I explained to the attorney that the hospital might have some misgivings because re-admits could affect their level of reimbursement. We were able to resolve the situation with a couple of telephone calls.
