What would you do if, someone from the building across the street, walks into your doctor's office, with a deep, bleeding laceration of the hand. they are not your patient, and you discover that your office does not participate with their insurance company.

 A patient should not be turned away when in need of immediate emergency care, with the laceration being deep and bleeding badly. The nurse and doctor will assess the wound. The doctor will clean and bandage the wound, and possibly give stitches to the patient. If the wound is more than the doctor can handle in his office, the plan would be to call an ambulance to transport the patient to the emergency room or call the patients regular doctor to be seen.

If the doctor can treat the wound the patient will have to agree to pay the fully since the insurance doesn't cover the costs. In some cases, insurance may pay for an emergency situation.

Explanation:

Refusing a wounded patient in some cases is unethical for a doctor.

Explanation:

As laceration bleeding needs a first aid and is not an emergency case a doctor should not deny to treat a patient. However, doctors can deny patient for treatment if that patient is not enrolled with the doctor’s insurance company. But this refusal may not be illegal but definitely unethical for a doctor.

Depending on the patient’s condition and severity of that condition, a doctor should never refuse to treat. Refusing for first-aid is simply against a doctor’s responsibility and ethics.
