I can't tell you that.

A Blog detailing the insanity of my medical practice and the stupidity of everyday life.
Welcome to my whining!
This blog is entirely for entertainment purposes. All posts about patients, or my everyday life, or anything else may be fictional, or be my experience, or were submitted by a reader, or any combination of the above. Factual statements may or may not be accurate. I could be making all this up. I may not even be a doctor. The only true statement on here is that I probably drink more Diet Coke than you do. A lot more.

Note: I do not answer medical questions. If you are having a medical issue, see your own doctor. For all you know I'm really a Mongolian yak herder and have no medical training at all except in issues regarding the care and feeding of Mongolian yaks.

Ouch, I laughed then sighed cause it's just to close to the truth
Oh God, I work in customer service for a major health insurer. I am going to bother all my coworkers with this tomorrow.
Groan..........
;)
Bravo!
I'm stupid, I don't get it. :-\
You can bet that I will make sure that makes the rounds in my hospital today! Love it!
That is also going to circulate at my law firm (we still run into issues with HIPPA in worker's comp, despite how many decades to work out the kinks?).
I so miss the days we could pin up select names of frequent flyers, and share the information across town!
Laura - you are lucky you don't :)
One of my first encounters with HIPAA was when I was volunteering at the hospital during high school . . . the retired lawyer who was training me asked me at the end of my first day if I had any questions, and I asked him what HIPAA stood for. He didn't know :)
I'm the administrator of my department. I sent this to a bunch of people. One of the frzzled ones just saw "HIPAA" and came in and asked me what had happened with HIPAA - when I told her she said that since I often make gentle jokes in my announcements to the department (to get their attention) that she thought it was a serious warning.
Our Nigerian doctor called me up completely freaked out. He's never heard of knock-knock jokes.
