7k for a noncontrast CT scan is absurd. As is the $700 CMP. And then charging around $1900 for nurses to hang IV fluids and two medications when the ER visit itself is only billed at $1700? Bonkers.
When I look up surgical code payback numbers, my 1-2 hour surgeries rarely top $3k. So this hospital is really reaching with some of its numbers.
Why were the cops even there?
As a surgeon, I have a lot of questions. But I have trouble accepting a personal injury attorney’s statement at face value when they stand to benefit from a judgement or settlement, too.
That’s such a weird picture, I’ve seen fancier tables and chairs at a tailgate.
That seems like a really easy mistake to not make. Like, has North Korea ever been to the Olympics?
Well, one did. There were videos and everything of her death.
I am a doctor, not your doctor.
First, you need to clean the area with soap and water. It’s hard to say a lot with the way it looks now.
Second, that looks like a fungal infection. You can treat it OTC with athlete’s foot medications or something for ringworm. I usually say topical terbinafine, which is the generic in a lot of those creams.
Third, might be less popular, but I’d encourage shaving the area. Hair makes it hard to care for or cleanse wounds. There are slightly higher rates of infection in situations like perioperative infections, but for fine care, it’ll be way easier for you.
Huh, and here I was thinking you didn’t have to test Fallout games to release them.
“I only killed that one girl, not my accomplice”??
I mean, the whole turning point of the story was the death on the boat. But I guess that was cool?
I wish I could set aside a week to write down all Donald Trump says in court.
… wait no I don’t.
For college football fans, Shutdown Fullcast, the only college football podcast. They occasionally accidentally talk about football.
The US approach to donation is odd, to say the least. You can’t be paid for blood, or organs. Blood products, like plasma, aren’t actually regulated and you can be compensated for them. The companies that collect those blood and organs you can’t profit from? They can make money from those transactions.
Went to school with Weston Wamp. His dad was a professional congresscritter, and it was pretty clear all he was ever interested in was politics. Not very bright, not very athletic, but always shaking hands. I doubt he has any real understanding of the situation outside what an advisor told him. He won the Special Olympics of jobs, since he was running as a Republican for local elections in Tennessee. I value his opinion just slightly more than my dogs, as I suspect he knows not to eat his own poop, but he’s basically just a fine combination of nepotism and entitlement and shouldn’t be allowed to counsel people unless it’s on how to make a career without any marketable skills.
The one thing they’re good at unless someone is trying to make a terrorist attack against Russia.
She wants martial law? Does she realize that’d mean soldiers would have shot her on January 6th?
He was a part of a group holding a large American flag at midfield, I think for a Giants game. He’s holding it at his waist and it’s flapping in the wind.
While this is spot on, it’s worth noting revelations was almost certainly about Rome and Roman emperors. The seven hills aren’t a coincidence.
Oh, do the 3-7 year residency process next, where hourly wages are usually below minimum wage!
Day 4, might be the longest this year for me. IWNDWYT
