I will research but I know this is done all the time, actually on workers' comp cases when clmt's settle out and close their case if they still need to further their medical care they are allowed to pay workers' comp fee schedule and not the full cost of what the providers bill them. I will get back to you.

The amazing thing is that most hospitals run on a 3%+- profit margin. So many people don realize that so many people get treatment & never pay for it also a ton of Medicare & Medicaid treatments are done at a loss. Constantly defending frivolous lawsuits cost hospitals a ton of money, even if hey win them all. There are so many things we could do to reduce the cost of healthcare. But that would mean allowing a doctor to make decisions & recommendations without having to worry about getting sued for doing his job.

No way that could work... Letting people that invested years into learning how to help people actually just help people. How stupid of an idea is that?

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
