My first patient who died on me

WOW all I can say you're the last person who Would think like me.

 

I think they are trying to put her in a nursing home. She doesn't want to go and they don't want to take her. I don't really react to the situation one way or the other except to gag with the stink. I figure it's not my job.

 

Even when they have Insurance out the ass. They get there Co-Pay Tell you they think it might be this throw some pills down your throat and then if that does not work, They take another CO-Pay then throw some different pills down your throat.

They could have skipped every bit of that by running some test the first time and actually fondling out what the problem was in the first place.

There are protocols for doing tests or not doing tests based upon cost and clinical benefit. For example, if someone has a sore throat you don't order a bunch of tests that cost 1,000 dollars when the only sore throat that results in significant disease such as heart valve problems is strep throat. So you just order an antibiotic that covers strep throat for 50 dollars rather than ordering a test that cost 1,000 dollars. That is the way it works. Give me a specific example of where you were shafted and I will tell you what I think about it. It is possible you were it's possible you were not. That doesn't really have anything to do with my post which was about a guy who could only eject 10% of the blood that entered his heart. He was buying time. If you lower his blood pressure then it's not high enough and his organs die it you raise it the heart is working harder and fails faster. There is no cure other than transplant which lasts typically 8 years which they don't give to prisoners who cant' be relied upon to tak the immunosuppressant medication.



Its like I go in and complain of chest pains or anything really, You give me whatever meds the Pharm Company's are pimping to you to thrust on everyone that quarter then move on. I end up dead 3 months later from cancers and you find out as your teeing off at the course and go opps. Yeah makes me feel really fucking great.

So I am assuming you went to the dr. for chest pains. If you really want to get your chest pains checked out you don't go to just any dr. if you feel that it is cardiac related and you don't think your doc knows what he is talking about. I am assuming the doctor gave you a proton pump inhibiter or something trying to rule out gastric reflux. Typically, the do that just to see if it cures the problem because the tests of the heart are so expensive. An echocardiogram can cost 1500 dollars but if the medicine for reflux didn't work it may be indicated for you. If you really think it is cardiac I suggest calling up an noninvasive cardiologist and making an appointment if you can. You should be able to do it but it will be more difficult and it may take them a while to get you in if you don't have a referral. If your primary care doc will give you the referral it will be easier.

Do us all a favor drop out and become a Lawyer at least then we would know your a slimy fuck ahead of time.[/quote]

dumbass

 

Also you should check to see if your insurance is good without a referral to get you covered. If not then you will have to go back to your primary care guy and get him to get you one or find another primary care doc that your insurance allows to get you a referral.
