Reviews
WCCH takes over all the small medical clinics only to refer all the medical services into their hospital and/or bill insurance for hospital services that were not covered by a small satellite clinic. The employees are mistreated and there is a high turnover rate for nearly all employees. I personally observed a janitorial worker who was in tears due to the way employees are treated by superiors.. The billing practices are awful. First you get an estimate that is intentionally low-balled as undue influence to get your business, next, it is inflated for additional cost (how can an X-Ray cost more than estimated? while another hospital is 30% less), lab work is sent to other clinics to charge insurance more money (intentional circumventing of fees). Medical staff is argumentative and sends your presumed bill to some real nasty collection agencies, who then trash your credit rating as leverage to collect on BS charges not approved by health insurance. If you write WCCH for proof-of-debt or with any billing issue, WCCH does not respond. I wrote this hospital with an issue concerning a H.I.P.A.A. violation with their assignment to a collection agency, no one answered my certified letter.. WCCH is a "For Profit" hospital and some real BLOOD SUCKERS
