With the recent documentation and billing changes, we actually make more money by prescribing the pain meds. Laugh out loud.
Cables. Cables will solidify your shoulders.
Didn’t they carry on with their investor conference?
I am spoiled with a home gym and a gym with a trainer that has usually less than six people in total including trainers.
well you can also “consider” Rx’ing them then not Rx them! So you are OK!
to be fair they probably had thousands of people there. The show much go on.. Remember the memes if you were to die your replacement at the job would be there and hired before your body got to room temperature.. this is no different.
Still a bad look that just reinforces people's beliefs about these companies.
Not so much him but certainly united. Not allowing for treatments or further testing that a doctor ordered certainly led to the deaths of patients.
Sure.. but your actions led to financial ruin which had all the downstream effects. Yep.. not as bad as a UHC ceo.. but not without blame. I knew that was gonna be an unpopular opinion but I’ll stick to it. Work for a corrupt organization and their actions under your medical license are tied to you..
Not quite. The cab driver is often up front on the price or the patient has an idea. The burger the patient sees the price up front. In the ED the patient has no idea that you are OON and even less of an idea that your care is going to cost them a ton of money they dont have and the CMG is not willing to give them one break and will take them to court to get their pound of flesh. Em docs choose to work for these broken corporations. EM docs are and were pretty aware of the crpatastic biz practices these people had in place.
Keep in mind united blocking payment for services means those patients could pay out of pocket. The patient chooses not to.. (playing devils advocate here). They arent denying the care just the payment for such.
I thought they canceled it. Maybe they just canceled for the day.
It’s not about the work.. it’s about the back end of it. This dude while i agree not my favorite also provided a ton of jobs to people. Created wealth for himself and those employees and shareholders.
Dont think so. Actually the law requires price transparency for the hospitals. The issue is the hospitals and insurers don't want this so the machine readable files are complete trash.
Thinking more about this.. im legit sad I didnt invest in UHG. I was late residency/early attendinghood when Obamacare passed. The writing was on the wall. I had no money but man I wish I scraped every nickel and invested it in UHG and spread a little love to the other insurers. Obamacare was a big boon to them all. Im not some ESG investor. UHG is in bed with the government so deep they will always make a ton of money. they do much more than insurance.
Face pulls and most delt work I'd suggest low to moderate weight, higher reps.
I think our family medical insurance premiums next year will run around $15k and basically covers nothing (other than getting us a terribly negotiated rate) until our out of pocket hits another $15k. We self pay whenever possible for medical care because our insurance is useless.
The mob also created wealth for the kingpin, fellow mobsters, and their family members...

Yep even with epsert witness docs when about 90% of cases that go to trial and several are dismissed before trial. It shows that expert witness and lawsuits for malpractice are mostly crap.
What’s happened is you pay premiums like normal but the coverage has gotten so much worse and is only useful for catastrophic care.
Publicly traded companies.. If you follow WCI and VTSAX or VOO and chill.. you are an owner there as well. What the mob did/ does was illegal. We and I dont like what UHG does but it is quite legal. When the feds gave physicians and hospitals those covid dollars i knew the game was over when the money from the government came through “optum”. Imagine that. Someone is gonna give you a big chunk of money but instead of giving it to you directly they go through a 3rd party. I dont know for sure but im guessing UHG got some money to do this.
Don’t forget about the scumbag docs who testify on behalf of the plaintiffs and make some of the dumbest arguments out there. It’s crazy stuff they mention.
Yep people want any bad outcome to have someone at fault. Everyone dies.. thats the reality of stuff. Sick people have problems, systems are broken.
Yes. And the clinics flat out tell us "we don't know the self pay amount" even when I tell them they definitely have to have the information somewhere.
