Patient One: He doesn’t feel he has any problems getting to his appointments. However, he
does have to walk three blocks to the bus stop and then take 3 different buses to reach Dr. X
office. He has learned that if he was able to obtain a letter from his physician that the Metro
would help him with transportation, but he hasn’t gotten around to it and just walks to the bus
stop.
Patient Two: “Both of my legs/feet were swollen-short of breath-I have heart trouble-the Dr.
sent into the hospital” “I don’t know why they keep swelling”
Patient Three: “The hospital sent me home with 2 liters of fluid on my lungs so, no sooner
than I got home, I got short of breath again. The hospital should have taken the fluid off me
before sending me home”.
Patient Four: “I did not do what I was supposed to do. When I got back from the hospital the
first time, I wasn’t eating properly. I wasn’t supposed to drink, but I had a beer or two. When I
left [the hospital] they told me I had a bad heart. I came home, I was laying around, I wasn’t
exercising or anything like that, and it just got worse, and I had to go back.” “….She’s ( HIS
WIFE) got me eating a lot of cereal—corn flakes and Cheerios and stuff like that. I may have
a potato salad, corned beef, some pickles… it’s a variety of things that I eat.
Patient Five: “Nothing but the cost of the medication. I have obtained some of the
medications but not all of them. I have Medicare Part B. I have an issue with the copayments. I am enrolled in the spend down program with FIA but I don’t know the number.
