My insurance Co. tried to make me reuse cath. when I was on home health care from surgery....that is nasty...we just paid for some because the thought of it freaked me out
That is so wrong!
Putting a non sterile cath in a sterile environment.. leading to infections, leading to higher costs for insurance company.. dorks!
See this is what is worng with our health care in the US, preventive care is CHEAP. But no, we ask people to do unsafe practices to save what a few measely dollars?
They re-use dialyzers in clinic, which is okay,, but not optimal. To make it more interesting, if you are doing well they will give you a smaller filter. Smaller ones are NOT as effective. Cost savings?
$3.00


But the guys sure do groan and moan about caths.
now what could gross out Alison?
