Business ProfileforPresbyterian / St. Luke's Medical Center

On 01/17/2022, I was involved in a motorcycle accident. I was transported from the scene of the accident, via ambulance. During transport in the ambulance, I informed the paramedic that I would like to be transported to a Veterans Affairs medical center to receive treatment as I am a combat veteran and only have medical care through the VA. The paramedic advised me that the VA does not take medical transports, but that I was free to leave on my own accord to go to the VA once we arrived at the hospital. Upon arrival at St Lukes, I was met by a police officer to provide a statement regarding the accident. I provided a statement and the police officer let me know I was free to leave to go seek treatment at the VA. The medical staff at St Lukes encouraged me to stay there and get checked in to seek treatment. I refused and explained to them I only have medical coverage through the VA so I would be transporting myself there to seek treatment. They then said I would have to sign a form stating that I was leaving against medical advice, which I signed and immediately left without ever being seen by any medical staff whatsoever at St Lukes and without receiving one bit of medical treatment there. I went to the VA and received all medical treatment at that hospital and have paid those bills and the ambulance bill for my initial transport. A few months ago, I was advised that I was sent to a collections company by St. Lukes for the amount of $810.17. I never received any treatment and specifically signed a document that St Lukes presented refusing any and all medical treatment from them. Any fees billed to me by St. Lukes are completely fraudulent, let alone over $800 to have me sign a form to say I was refusing to be seen and leaving against medical advice. Now I am having creditors call me to collect on this fraudulent charge. I would like this fraudulent charge dismissed and my credit report corrected as I never received any treatment at all from this facility.
