THE NY STATE DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH ENCOURAGES MEDICAL FRAUD BY DOING NOTHING TO STOP IT. Subject: ELDER ABUSE, NEGLECT, FINANCIAL EXPLOITATION, EXPLOITATION, INSURANCE FRAUD. IN BRIEF: I REQUESTED MY MEDICAL RECORDS FROM THE USA VEIN CLINIC LOCATED AT 116-02 QUEENS BLVD., FOREST HILLS, NY 11375 AS THE FED. LAW HIPAA RULES. THE OWNERS OF THE USA VEIN CLINICS ARE YKATSNELSON@ USA CLINICS.COM AND HIS WIFE, DRFLORA@***.COM DR. RICHARD DI FIORE AS WELL AS DR. MICHAEL LEVY WERE ON THE CASE. THOSE RECORDS SHOULD HAVE BEEN SENT TO ME WITHIN 10 DAYS. IT HAS NOW BEEN APPROX. 1 1/2 YEARS & I STILL DO NOT HAVE MY MEDICAL RECORDS. I AM STILL HAVING HORRIFIC PROBLEMS WHICH HAVE WORSENED SINCE THE SO CALLED TREATMENT AT THE USA VEIN CLINIC WHICH I WOULD LIKE TO GET REASSESSED BY THE VETERANS HOSP. VASCULAR CLINIC WHICH IS IMPOSSIBLE WITHOUT MY TRUE & COMPLETE MEDICAL RECORDS FROM THE USA VEIN CLINIC. PLEASE TAKE A LOOK AT MY LEGS. I CAN'T HELP BUT WONDER HOW MANY OTHER CLIENTS AS WELL AS SENIOR CITIZENS THEY HAVE NEGLECTED & ABUSED FOR THE INSURANCE MONEY. PERHAPS PART OR ALL OF MY ENTIRE MEDICAL RECORDS HAVE BEEN CHANGED AS DR. RICHARD DI FIORE DID PROCEDURES ON MY RIGHT LEG WHEN THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH MY RIGHT LEG, NOW THERE IS. HE STATED HE HAD TO DO THEM ANYWAY. THERE IS ALWAYS A WITNESS IN THE ROOM WITH ANYONE WHO IS HAVING A PROCEDURE. I AM AS WELL MAKING THIS COMPLAINT AGAINST THE NY STATE DOH WHO STATED THEY HAVE BEEN INVESTIGATING MY COMPLAINT NOW FOR MANY MONTHS YET I STILL DO NOT HAVE MY MEDICAL RECORDS? ERICA, BUTLER AN INVESTIGATOR FROM THE NY STATE DOH CAN'T SEEM TO REMEMBER HER PHONE #? SHE ALWAYS GIVES A NUMBER THAT NO ONE CAN REACH HER ON. NOW SHE HAS SOMEONE WHILE ACTUALLY LEAVING A MESSAGE TELL HER WHAT HER PHONE # IS ? I AM A VETERAN OF THE UNITED STATES AIR FORCE, AS WELL AS A SENIOR CITIZEN &THIS AS WELL IS ABSOLUTE ELDER ABUSE, NEGLECT & FINANCIAL EXPLOITATION/EXPLOITATION OF THE ELDERLY. THE OWNERS OF THE USA VEIN CLINIC AS WELL AS DR. RICHARD DI FIORE & DR. MICHAEL LEVY SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED & CHARGED WITH NON COMPLIANCE OF STATE & FEDERAL LAWS AS WELL AS ABUSE, NEGLECT AND EXPLOITATION OF THE ELDERLY. THEY AS WELL OVER APPROX. 1 1/2 YEARS AGO WHEN MY REQUEST FOR MY MEDICAL RECORDS WERE DISHONORED, THEY WERE SUPPOSED TO SEND ME APPEAL FORMS WHICH THEY NEVER DID & THIS AS WELL IS IN NON COMPLIANCE WITH NY STATE & FEDEREAL LAW. ANY HELP IN THIS MATTER WOULD BE MOST HUMBLY APPRECIATED.
