        Good Physicians but Questionable Billing

        At the time I was a patient at Alta Orthopedic clinic, their online Payment Policy stated that patients are to be notified in advance of any visit that is deemed self-pay. And if those visits are self-pay, "payment in full is requested at the time of visit".

        At NO time was I advised mine were self-pay appointments, nor was payment requested in advance. Had that been the case, I would not have commenced with a series of injections. The clinic's initiation of the series was useless as the series was halted midstream since I could not afford the injections. Alta was negligent at the outset, in failing to communicate that the series was my responsibility. Nonetheless, Alta's billing department continues to hound me by email, text, and phone for payment.

        Alta has now altered their website page to shift the burden of self-pay notification to the patient but their belated attempt to backbill me now is unethical. A new CA law expressly forbids this disreputable practice in order to protect the patient. In the words of a judge, "It's a good law".
