An insurance company just denied my patient an MRI of the foot because "it was not a high risk area." But they approved the ankle. The report came back as an incomplete evaluation in the area of interest, which is in the foot. Merry Christmas to everyone except these folks.

Doctor Friends, This week my podcast features Dr. Diana Girnita... We are fighting to make patient care more accessible, more transparent and more aligned with our values in caring for patients without causing financial harm. thedirectcareway.com/1940570… #directcare
"Direct Care is a social movement by doctors who are fed up with the restriction of insurance and have opted out of insurance plans simplifying access to medical care at a more economical rate that works for both patients and doctors." doctorsonsocialmedia.com/ben… via @SoMeDocs

When corporations say they care about your well being and don’t cover preventive services. Another day in marketing healthcare bullshit.

Government interfering in medical practice yet again. Pro-vote them out.
The American College of Surgeons has long opposed governmental interference in the clinical practice of medicine and in the privileged physician-patient relationship. (1/3)

Aka health insurance
Gonna start a company where people pay me $400/month for access to pizza, and when they want pizza they can call me for preauthorization and I’ll tell them where they can go, how much they can buy, and what kind they can get. My company will pay for 50% after the first $250 spent
