In my OPINION, medical care has deteriorated dramatically. FAULT? I've read that 80% of medical care is paid for by either an insurance company or the government. Every doctor needs a PAID STAFF just to fill out paperwork. The doctor is expected to see four patients an hour. That is not the too limited 15 minutes as he/she has to walk from one WORK STATION-go to room three, to the other. You/WE want to be polite so you ask how ya doin Dr X?. If, he/she replies they have used 2 minutes out of your 12.
It can't be enjoyable fo the doctor let alone the patient.
Oh the insurance company tells them what they can charge and what care is acceptable-normal. PROPER CARE-I don't even know what that is. Perhaps, like your golf cart, your car, your AC the tihing to do is research POSSIBLE causes of any issue and have a CONFERENCE with your doctor. A typed note might be a good idea.
BLOOD TESTS-do you know your doctor needs to give an OK for you to get a copy? HUH? It is your blood, your health oh and your bill. If, you've ever seen one, it shows your reading and what normal is. ANYTHING outside of normal range, ask your doctor why and more importantly what should be OR COULD BE DONE about it.
