00:00For all the details on what happened to me regarding my injury, we're pushing 100 hours
00:05plus of video now. YouTube channel My Medical Nightmare. All right, update on the business
00:11practices of Alabama-based Birmingham Radiological Group. They claim to have 45 radiologists on the
00:19payroll and are composed of doctors that examine MRI x-rays and CT imagery. Many doctors and
00:27medical practices in the Birmingham area rely on their services, and you may be surprised if you
00:32went to see a doctor and had an MRI CT or x-ray in the Birmingham area. A BRG, Birmingham Radiological
00:41Group doctor, may have examined your images, and you may not be aware of it until later. I was a
00:47customer and patient of Birmingham Radiological Group in 2018 and 2019. I had three of their doctors
00:55look at MRI CT and x-ray of a major injury that I had in my head. I almost died from this. These
01:03doctors wrote in their reports that I had no injury present. I knew otherwise. Went and got the
01:09pictures. I'll put the pictures up here yet again. And what is clearly visible at this time when I was
01:16being told these falsehoods was that around six inches in diameter of infection appears inside my
01:24head. I'd actually broken my skull in the basilar area in the region of the occipital condyle and
01:30condylar canal. My issues are unresolved outstanding as it relates to Birmingham Radiological Group
01:37doctors, Angus Baird, MD, Julian Patrick Druhan, MD, and Donald Shane Kelly, MD. I called the CEO,
01:45Doyle Stewart, and he told me in a recorded phone call that he was not going to help me get my own
01:51images looked at again or to correct the errors of their doctors. Do some searches around the
01:57internet. Look at the reviews at the Better Business Bureau website. Look at the reviews on
02:03Google. Look at the reviews of the employees on Indeed.com, for example. There are more and more
02:09instances of people having problems with this company and their doctors. A new customer and patient
02:16review has been posted on January 13th. It reads, my husband received a debt collector letter for this
02:25group. He has received no bill for this amount or any previous correspondence from them. There's no date
02:33of service or what was provided. They just want him to pay $160 with no explanation in the letter.
02:42He does not recall using them unless it was from surgery performed at Grandview over one year ago.
02:52If you want to know how the Birmingham Radiological Group doctors do business, I've broken all this stuff
03:00down in videos over the years. Possibly here we have an example of phantom billing or balance billing,
03:09both very egregious examples of medical fraud. There's no itemized list of services, no time or date
03:20when medical services were rendered, no names of doctors or medical professionals, no name of the hospital
03:29or medical facility in which they were performed. Something the reviewer may be interested in looking into
03:37is a federal law called the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act, FDCPA. If you read this and understand
03:48what information debt collectors are required to send, these include the debt collector's name and mailing
03:57information, name of creditor to whom the debt is owed, account number associated with the debt,
04:05an itemized report of what you owe, including interest, fees and payment activity, current amount of the
04:14debt, and information about your debt collection rights as a consumer, including how to dispute the
04:21debt. And again, it looks like many of these were left out of the letter they received. If I happen to
04:28receive this letter, I would demand to get an itemized bill proper from the hospital. According to HIPAA,
04:37the providers are required to send you this within 30 days upon request. Last year, I talked about some
04:45other cases involving the same doctors. I'll tell everybody a secret here. The reason why they send out
04:53these vague letters with just a few items of information in them is about deception number one,
05:03because these doctors are not professional or trustworthy, they avoid as much as possible the
05:10upfront and traditional business practices. So what they're doing here is they're attempting to avoid
05:17liability by putting their cards on the table. Every detail that criminal doctors put into writing, the patient
05:27who's been targeted or is being preyed upon to provide these sums of money, they can take that to a lawyer or an
05:36attorney, and they can challenge all this in a courtroom. Birmingham Radiological Group is known for sending out
05:43some really strange and suspicious collections letters and outright bills. The fact that the reviewer
05:52believes the collection may be from a surgery that happened more than a year ago, that's very suspicious.
06:01Recent trends show that these doctors will send unpaid bills to collectors after only 30 days.
06:10They're recorded as having sent some bills out to deceased patients and customers' families years following alleged medical procedures.
