Patient Rights And Violations

Summary

Patient rights violations can sometimes be civil rights violations, especially if they involve discrimination or denial of necessary care. Criminal endangerment may occur if actions are willfully reckless, causing harm. Montana law protects against medical malpractice and negligence. Consider contacting the Montana Attorney Generals Office or federal agencies like the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services for assistance. If immediate help is needed, visiting an urgent care center might be a temporary solution.

This sounds like a serious issue with potential legal implications. Montana law protects patients from medical malpractice and negligence.
- Medical malpractice involves improper, unskilled, or negligent treatment by a medical professional.
- Patient rights violations can lead to civil action and, in severe cases, criminal charges.
Have you considered filing a formal complaint with the Montana Board of Medical Examiners? They oversee medical professionals in your state.
If you need immediate help filling your prescription, visiting an urgent care center might be a temporary solution.
Would you like more information on how to file a formal complaint?
When this is all started last year a year ago in September my first doctor my primary care doctor of over a decade didn't believe me that something was wrong with me and she was very rude and dismissive and I filed a complaint with the medical board then and they dropped my case and didn't even investigate it I had a witness they didn't even contact and right before they dropped it I was diagnosed by a specialist with SLE lupus. I have been neglected and mistreated by six doctors in a row there's nowhere left for me to go I've been abandoned I've been ignored I've been verbally assaulted over the phone by two different doctors in a row I've had my prescription refused to be filled I've had it threatened to be removed all of which is causing me severe distress and I'm living in fear for my life every single day and I now have PTSD diagnosed from this shit and that is for the rest of
