If you want timely care or a service that Revere health cannot bill for immediately, do NOT go to…read moreRevere Health. Employees of Revere Health DO NO care about satisfying you, maybe some of their doctors do, but for the most part, Revere's staff does not care about you.
--- I got a blood test done by LabCorp in Sandy, part of the Revere System, a day before I was to see my doctor in American Fork, The LabCorp office manager said she would send the results to the AF clinic the same day. When I arrived for my meeting the next day, the report was not there. I asked the office manager, of their Internal Medicine Clinic to look for it, and she said it was not there. I asked her to call the Lab, and she refused, saying it was not part of her job. As a result, I suffered major discomfort and pain waiting on the lab results for the next 11 days. Neither my doctor nor I have received these results, even after 11 days--after promised same-day delivery. After 10 days, I remembered having similar symptoms 25 years before, and what cured them. I took the same medicine as I did then, an over-the-counter medicine, and it cured my painful symptoms.
LabCorp brags about offering high-tech solutions, but still uses faxes and snail mail to deliver results. They flatly refuse to email the results. They spend thousands of dollars on their test equipment, but zero dollars to improve the delivery of their results, even for equipment that will reduce a patient's time in pain or discomfort. Apparently LabCorp does not care about you, especially if you need ANYTHING done out that is even slightly out of the ordinary. Their attitudes towards patients suck, especially when you ask for something they promised and did not deliver. They really don't want to talk to you--their customer service department has an unlisted number.
It is 800-788-9738
Revere has a similar pattern; if they can't bill for a service, even a minor request, it simply won't happen, unless you make it more painful for them to ignore you rather than deliver what they promised. This however, takes time, time that patients are in discomfort or pain.
-- I had a burning mouth problem, which a Revere ENT treated with a prescription. When it ran out, they took 10 days to OK a refill--ten days of my mouth burning in pain. Revere's office manager said they had sent an Ok to the pharmacy but the pharmacy said they had gotten nothing, five days in a row. I was able to get a refill only after having a conference call with both the pharmacy and the doctor's nurse on the line, which took an hour to set up and conduct. The doctor's nurse finally said she would send "another" approval to the pharmacy, when the doctor returned in 5 days. I said that if I did not get the approval that day, I would tell the world just how uncaring their patient care actually is. That day, they found a doctor outside the clinic to approve the refill.
Again, if you need any service slightly out of what Revere Health or LabCorp does on a routine basis, DO NOT count on it happening, especially if Revere can't bill for it, immediately. Their system is set up to manage only their immediately billable, routine services, delivered according to THEIR routines. They apparently care most about making money and doing only what they have to. Based on ten years of receiving their care, I have learned this; they do not care about you, in the slightest. Their mission is simply making money, as fast as possible and at lowest cost.
