WHAT'S THE ISSUE?

Hagens Berman has filed a class-action lawsuit against John Muir Hospital based on patients’ reports that they received extraordinarily large and unexpected charges for drug tests amounting to upwards of $6,000 from John Muir Health locations. Patients have been left with huge bills for services that should cost a mere fraction of the bills that they received.

YOUR RIGHTS AS A PATIENT

Those who have been excessively charged for drug tests at a John Muir Health   Emergency  Departments deserve compensation. We believe these expensive and unexpected bills for drug tests may constitute fraud, and patients of John Muir hospitals may have consumer rights against these predatory billing practices.
