One where you don't need licensure to actually work as a rad tech, so there's that too lol.

If you get a CT with contrast the omni 300 is an extra 1k charge plus an extra 1k on the exam itself. You also get charged for the power injector supplies and saline flush lol.

Will. Dont take thisthe wrong way, but i think you might be working at a sketchy hospital...

Are you guys private, for profit or county?

I'm aware it's sketchy. I knew it was sketchy when I found out hospitalists were working the ER lol.

It's for profit, large, and covers a large rural swath so much so that some of the pts seem like third worlders.

I'm not complaining tho. I advocate a lot for my pts and some of the docs are very good with what shit resources they're given.

I feel ya, my one gig is very similar to that.
We just cogs in the wheel but sometimes we gotta give em a flat tire so theyll listen n not kill ppl.

Several times ive wanted to headbutt a doc for being an arrogant sonabitch. My usual retort is "you can fix em now or code em later."

Extravasating them? It happens but shouldn't really happen much at all. When they're doing a CTA aorta we slam them with 5ml a sec and the techs should be testing them with a flush and with saline from the power injector beforehand to check pressures. That's why we demand at least a 20g cath on the shitty vein ppl lol

I don't deal so much with the direct care like you do so I don't have to deal with headbutting so much. I do recommend changing exams or modalities all the time tho. I just pray they don't code on my table because doc said two words to them through the door and is practicing cookbook medicine or going off the triage notes that are usually wrong lol.

1. Have you had any known exposure to the Rona
2. Any underlying conditions that put you at higher risk if you get Rona (high blood pressure, diabetes, asthma, immune diseases or obesity)
3. Do you live in a multi generational household where you can make alot of ppl sick that live with you?

i go out in public a lot. No I don't think I have an y underlying conditions. Annd yes I do live in a multigenerational household. I just woke up this morning and I checked my temp again and it still says I'm not running a fever or anything.

All of it.

Get a good insurance plan with a low copay and make the paramedics take you to a hospital within your network lol. Truly tho, would you rather be dead or have medical debt up to your eyeballs?
Click to expand...
Good insurance with low copay is three times the amount of the "bronze" level. The bronze level has a 5K deductible. This whole HC system is now a scam. It wasn't like this twenty years ago. It was just expensive, and shitty. Now it's expensive and extra shitty.

What's your beef with my age faggot?
