Comment on An Example of Why Our Healthcare System Is a Mess by John Bennett

John Bennett — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 18:20:54 +0000

(Coming from the FOTMD website.) I agree, the blame is being passed onto the insurance companies (which in my belief also deserve some of the blame – but not all). My wife recently had her annual inspection completed with calcium in her breast and a mass on one of her ovaries. I am not against specialization, but we saw her regular doctor, a surgeon, an OB/GYN and of course a different hospital where her breast biopsy was completed. (All turned out negative for the C-word thankfully). Well after her breast biopsy we had another follow-up with the surgeon, who called us up to delay our appointment because he was in (well) surgery. We went in two hours later for a five minute discussion that she did not have cancer. Why couldn’t we have just saved time and effort by him telling us over the phone that the biopsy was good? How much can they charge for an office visit? I’m miffed! (Yet very glad she is cancer free at this point!) This is another example of a way to over charge the insurance companies (and individuals).

How cool is that! I’d say you have a keeper there. Mine is not that different. Forgets many important dates, but is known to bring home chocolates or flowers at random for me. Tonight he brought home a cake to celebrate the RN.

Oh, that looks like fun! And definite visual/audio overload. I would’ve been stalking all the costumes (and no doubt running around in circles with so many fabulous ones!)
