BayPAC Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 Who told patients that I should know the med they are on based on the color and shape of the pill?? "I'm taking a green round pill." I'm good but not that good! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GetMeOuttaThisMess Posted January 25, 2019 Share Posted January 25, 2019 Who told the patient that it is my problem that the patient can't pay for a <$20 prescription when I even looked it up on GoodRx.com for them and provided them with a discount card so that they wouldn't have to load the app and yet they still called back to bitch about it saying that their $10 administrative fee to be seen should've covered the antibiotic as well. If they had known this then they would've just gone to their PCP for $140! HUH? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually it's the UC or PCM, or the nurse-daughter. 1 hour ago, BayPAC said: Who told patients that I should know the med they are on based on the color and shape of the pill?? "I'm taking a green round pill." I usually reply to that by saying "That's like making me guess what kind of car you drive by telling me it's color."

If they are asymptomatic they get sent home to call their PCP. If they have concerning symptoms they go to the ER. Period. I had an 80 year old yesterday for high BP who had been to the ER the night before 180/92, no symptoms. Some chucklehead popped an IV in her and gave her IV labetolol, sent her home with no PO meds and instructions to follow up with her PCP (she doesn't have one) so 12 hours later she is in the UC with the same story.
