Mary: "Let me give you these forms... Here's a pen... can I get a copy of your insurance card?"
Mrs. Card: "No."
Mary: "Do you have it with you?"
Mrs. Card: "Yes, but I don't know Dr. Grumpy yet. Can I give it to you after the visit, if I think he deserves to get paid?"
Get the &*(# out of here!
ReplyDeleteI can answer that one from here.
I think Dr. Grumpy should not see this patient. This is trouble brewing from the git go.
ReplyDelete"Also, I get to fill in the amount."
ReplyDeleteMaybe it's all just an elaborate ruse to steal pens from doctors' offices.
ReplyDelete"That's assuming Dr. Grumpy thinks you deserve to be seen."
ReplyDeleteWho's making up these last couple of stories for you, Doc? One of your kids?
ReplyDeleteAnon 2:42, I though the same thing. This sounds like Craig. Or Craig sounds like his dad. . .
ReplyDelete"And then, based on what the insurance company does, I'll decide if they deserve my premiums or not."
ReplyDeleteLike in China ~ if the patient died, the doctor didn't get paid!!!
ReplyDeleteI hope Mary told her to go take a flying leap at a rolling donut!
Based on the eye-popping things I've heard in retail pharmacy I can assure you that there is no doubt in my mind that this really happened. People continually amaze me on daily basis with bucket loads of stupidity.
ReplyDeleteSo how did it go when you saw her? Did she decide you were worth it?
ReplyDelete"Why is there a line for a tip on my bill?"
ReplyDeleteYou win, Officer Cynical.
ReplyDeleteLMAO
