[QUOTE="sano, post: 389662, member: 8689"] Its really hard telling. Most medical systems are so disjointed, even they don’t know what’s going on. My Mom recently was in an accident and broke her foot in 6 places and her back in 2 places. It was a worker’s comp covered incident, but my folks received bills from 6 different entities. If it was just the billing that was disjointed that would be one thing, but the care itself was very spotty. No single person is looking at the whole case. She goes in for a follow-up appointment and she has to remind them that her back is broken in 2 places. Even though she is wearing a hard back brace under her shirt the doctor never thought to look at her back. When she asked "what about my back?" He said "OH yeah" and quickly paged through the file. It was obvious he had never even given the file so much as a glance before the meeting. Sorry about the rant. nothing was said in this thread to deserve me going off like this, but its fresh on my mind right now. <steps off soap box> [/QUOTE]
