Turn The Pillow Over To the Cool Side

PIECES – NOTES – COMING SOON

By darn, when the medical practice learned there was a mistake in the billing information, they were ready instantly to make corrections and additions, insisted, in fact.

What would Oprah say? She would say – voice it! But she would also understand being too scared to open mouth on anything.

(re-write – insert)

 

I was living overseas (Asia and then the Middle East) when Oprah began (nationally and internationally), and even when I moved to Canada and was back in viewing range, I did not have a TV for a while, and then did not have time for watching daytime TV all that often, and certainly didn’t have a DVR. So I rarely saw Oprah and did not know that much about her, or her show, or much of the impact – I didn’t know about her magic!
It might have been almost the first time time I saw her, it was certainly the first time I heard a voice… She spoke about the heat, and her grandmother saying to turn the pillow over to the cool side. I was dumb stuck, I didn’t hear anything much after that and really can’t say 100% for certain it was only about the summer heat in the south. I should not pretend to have watched much period so I can’t pass a quiz on the Oprah show but several of the stories now have touched me.

At the time I heard the pillow story, the pillow I was lying on was hot and miserable, and I needed to turn it over. I needed to get away from that heat and misery. What use was it to stay? Then it was a life change, and now it is life and health – quality of life.
It really works to turn the pillow over, and the bottom side will cool down quickly and you can turn it again, and again – and keep turning it until you get it right.

Since I have had magnificent doctors then I know what I am missing. From this same umbrella medical group a magnificent doctor, my former PCP, taught me as a patient what I should expect – the professionalism was inspiring and created a sense of trust and did not waste time or money and took care of everything like a check list – just matter of fact.

Amend a file? Make a correction and make sure any who saw the incorrect information get an update?

Things like: No, I do not have chest pain with exertion.

Things like: No, I do not have facial pain.

So What? The what is called pre-existing conditions, which are very expensive.

The what is doctors who do not do an exam, but not only describe the findings (incorrect) of the exam that was not preformed, but then charge the insurance company/companies for that exam.

Is that called insurance fraud?

updated note – adding quote and link – text coming

“…For colds, most individuals become contagious about a day before cold symptoms develop and remain contagious for about five to seven days. Some children may pass the flu viruses for longer than seven days (occasionally for two weeks). Colds are considered upper respiratory infections…”

But after time with the ear and throat infected… maybe help is needed.
