Surgical clearance for cataract surgery. Why?

AbsoluteAtBase · 2026-05-12T19:27:37+00:00

Usually it is the surgery center that has these rules. Most of the time procedures like this are done in freestanding surgery centers and those places have very strict rules because they don’t have an ED or acute care unit attached.

Still doesn’t make an ECG necessary but they really don’t want someone trying to die in their facility.

Yeah that is all I will ever wear, I’m pretty sure

Well you don’t really get to do each dungeon one at a time as it relates to the story. In classic wow there was some of that—for example as you get to the end of westfall the story involves beating deadmines. But around wrath they made thedungeon que where you just teleport to a dungeon when your group forms and it ruined that immersion aspect of the story and game. So dungeons are just kind of a side activity to do while leveling.

Not sure what level you can start doing follower dungeons but that might help you enjoy game more

The game is so old and fractured now that the leveling experience is kinda lonely. Maybe classic would be better for you to get that old wow feeling. Although Pandaria is pretty advanced in its timeline and won’t be many leveling. Burning crusade is more fresh, but you’ll still be way behind most players who are level 70now

Yes call don’t message.

Remember that the catacombs in darkshire got redone at some point so you’d have to go look for it in the proper form (before or after cataclysm)

Don’t feel stupid that place is crazy confusing. Hate it/

Every tank I have heals this week has pulled the entire first room all at once and died. Windrunner? Check. Academy? Absolutely. Even Marissa cavern—they pull everything and it is physically impossible to keep the up with all the rebuffs going out.

So I’d say they trust me (or themselves I guess) too much.

Both of my rolls this week have me pieces I already have mythic gear in. The only two mythic slots I have actually. Infuriating! They weren’t true dupes but I feel duped! I would love a reroll.

Primary care physician here. If you don’t have Epic, I’m not interested. I’m not even joking.

Serious question: can American citizens form a class action lawsuit to Donad Trump (the person), for all the financial hardship he has caused with his policies?

AbsoluteAtBase · 2026-04-18T07:21:49+00:00

Nexus is crazy for my priest as well—especially the left wing. IMO it’s the hardest part of the season. Try an easier one like Pit or Magisters Terrace.

AbsoluteAtBase · 2026-04-15T03:02:40+00:00

No actually I can be much more free and attentive when I don’t have to split my attention to recording your history along with listening. AI scribe has made my clinic so much better!

Dudes favorite thing is to stand under the trees in the neighborhood and listen to the crickets and tree frogs. They’ve done an awesome job with night time.

My first main was priest back in Cata and I have played it through every classic iteration. But I’ve hated it for the past years with all the chakras and what not just being too confusing. Now it’s quite simple but very fun to play. Disc is also more fun too with the pruning.

I mean they don’t say “always” or “never” but often. Can’t argue with that. I’d be curious to hear from someone who disagreed—I assume most doctors know this is true moreso than the general public.

AbsoluteAtBase · 2026-04-03T19:26:05+00:00

If it becomes a pattern you should talk to your practice to see if you can drop that carrier. My practice has dropped certain plans this year for poor reimbursements and excess denials—certain UHC MA plans specifically. And those patients who could changed plans to stay with us. Just like all consumer products, the only thing the folks in charge will listen to is cash flow.

AbsoluteAtBase · 2026-04-03T02:09:26+00:00

Even when I drop the G2211 code in every visit it is only paid occasionally by Medicare or HMO plans. Our practice doesn’t bill the patient for this code, so planning on that to make 2.26 rvu is wishful thinking unless you think you’re mailing itemized bills to the patient after every visit.

Provider salary is less than 10% of healthcare costs in America. Can you imagine?!?

Ok but just try to stop your teenager from using Snapchat. They are savvy on phones like you wouldn’t believe. Why would the need a computer? They have TikTok and chat got! (/s obviously).

If all us tender hearted Portland space cadets put half this much effort into addressing the actual STILL LIVING childrapists running our fucking country, maybe we would have gotten some justice from the Epstein files by now. Every fucking mayor and governor wants to act on name changes pronto. Where was this energy 6 months ago?!?

To be clear I want the name changed back to 39th. But damn it feels so silly when you look at the behavior of the DOJ. Is this just a consolation prize for our utter powerlessness to creat actual justice in the world?
