Tri-10 Wk09 Day ? - March 5, 2012
5:08 a.m. No shortage of sleep lately, that's for sure. ...7:27 a.m. ... unexpectedly sidetracked. can't say it was good or bad, just was.
8:12 a.m. - off to school.
2:41 p.m. - leftover pizza for lunch.
I was surprised in Office Management when Dr. Hillgartner told us about insurance companies that offer "expedited service" with regards to paying their claims in exchange for something like a 30% reduction in what they owe to a doctor for services rendered.
So, if an insurance company owes a doctor $230 then the insurance company would be willing to pay $160 in a timely manner as long as the doctor takes a cut in what's due them otherwise the doc has to wait .... It's pretty ridiculous but, seems like standard practice according to Dr. H.
Case STudy in ddx today consisted of a 20 yom, collegiate athlete two experienced right sided parasthesia & weakness with a sudden onset while squatting w/ 325 lbs.
With the sudden onset and lifting, I initially thought musculoskeletal system and it reminded me of a pt I had in clinic.
