Residents: the post-op visits filling your clinic don't get billed on their own.
Medicare's fee for a major surgery covers 90 days of follow-up, including visits, dressing changes and suture removal. A carpal tunnel release is one of them.
On an RVU contract, a full post-op clinic can be a busy day that adds zero new RVUs.
I actually don’t get along with everyone.
It’s actually fucking insane that you have to say that you do?
I fucking loathe the ivory tower out of touch fuck faces?
And that’s okay. You should be able to say that and openly mock them.
First, I get along and respect all my colleagues employed and academic
Second,most of my employed and academic colleagues have little to know understanding of how health care works.
Some actually take pride in the ignorance like it’s badge of honor…
It’s disappointing
@sdixitmd FYI you’ve been inciting a lot of this on my feed.
What you do is unimaginably valuable.
And also: non MDs exist that care about healthcare.
Can we try to find ways to collaborate? I know you don’t value what I do, but I value what you do. So perhaps that’s a start.
@fuqekgs@veev_iloabuchi Tbh most med students who did this were ass kissers looking for easy ways to ingratiate themselves with residents/attendings. There was a reason my med school banned it. Because it worked, and became an arms race. But I get your joke and yah it’s funny
I love the thought of people like this lying in an ICU/or an ER bay desperately asking someone who knows what they’re doing to help them as they’re dying.
It’s just delicious.
Karma, you stupid bitch.
@francisdeng You are all prostitutes for hire, horrors of the pharmaceutical industry, and purveyors of the filthy greedy allopathic Rockefeller medicine system
There will be karma to pay
Hi. Yeah fuck off.
It was 100% what it was. It was to hide underperformining minority students pidgeon holed into limited medical student spots to complete an agenda.
How do know? I fucking saw it happen live. Don’t fucking gaslight me.
@DrMTd8e Ah… yes… me…. The guy prescribing post op.
I relish the fact that you’re likely genX/boomer and you’re gonna be stymied with a generation that just isn’t gonna deal with this shit as you need healthcare the most.
Good luck. Enjoy the line you created.
I hope my triple factor auth is down on my phone and the ICD-10 code now required to fill post op pain scripts is unfindable while the pharmacist tells your family member they’re out of my service area.
Get fucked and fill the bottle chuckle fuck.
@DrDiGiorgio BS.
E-scribing alone proved it beyond any reasonable doubt, and you're complaining because doing what is in the best interests of the patient requires more effort than you seem to think they're worth.
Get your lazy ass on the EHR and do the job right.
Stanning for EHRs which are universally loathed is quite a moment for this websites niche healthcare fucking losers.
No one can “buckle down” past shit UIs, worthless and endless clicks, and unnecessary documentation.
Fuck you.
Most of the time the problem is not the EHR but the ego of the practitioner that's an expert in the field unable to contain that ego, buckle down learn to use the EHR.
@pleeberw3md@BouncingDeadCat I’m a practicing ortho surgeon you stupid fuck.
I didn’t suck at anything.
I saw an unjust system fuck people over because of the color of their skin. Spoiler alert stupid fuck : it wasn’t all white skin getting fucked.
@pleeberw3md@BouncingDeadCat I saw people get to that level because of p/f.
Be placed higher on match lists because of the color of their skin (but just the right color)
Which then continued to struggle.
Which were then passed along.
But sure. Lmaoooo!
@fuqekgs can you explain why you’re amplifying medical students with means when there are others who can’t afford it?
Why are you enabling this behavior? Doesn’t it bias you?
Please check your privileges.
The most hilarious thing about this post is that she’s responding to an elite #medtwitter virtue signaler.
And she slides left of her.
Someone will always try to carry the flag more than you.
Brian blocked me because he’s an insurance shill who doesn’t have any reasonable retort to why physicians win an outrageous % of arbitration.
I hope his 5 kids get the care they deserve.
A third party who isn’t involved at all is determining that insurers are fucking over physicians and are making them pay.
And for this mother fucker, that is a disaster.
Fuck you, Brian. May you get the care you deserve you.
