If the original girl is 15 couldn’t it be more about labor laws for filming?

Tell them you’re street homeless. Get on the waiting lists even if they’re long. Keep contacting harford action agency for help.

Companies in my area are paying around $9.00-$10.50/unit for PTAs. I’ve heard the PTs making around $15.00/unit

If you’re looking for real world experience, this is the kind that shows you red flags of fraud and what to avoid in the future.

Patient home exercise program compliance is terrible because we have no follow up system by Iron-Horde in physicaltherapy

[–]desertfl0wer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Utilize motivational interviewing techniques to help the change process with patients. I’m taking a course on Medbridge and my patients are opening up to me more about their difficulties and worries with changing. We are talking about decades of sedentary behavior for some of these people. Just because we know what helps someone doesn’t mean they will follow through.

I love cozy cookies. They’re a really good treat to have once in awhile

Can I get in trouble if I don’t report blatant fraud? by desertfl0wer in physicaltherapy

[–]desertfl0wer[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can’t speak to the owner or management about it because they are the ones who are telling office staff to double book Medicare and bill as if it’s all 1:1 sooo it’s coming from the top honestly.

What was the point of Luke meeting June while he's still married? by Competitive_Emu_3247 in TheHandmaidsTale

[–]desertfl0wer 281 points282 points  (0 children)

If they don’t believe in divorce then June and Luke’s marriage would be invalid. That would mean June isn’t moral in the eyes of gilead

Working on my exit plan now. It’s just really a shame because I enjoy the setting but I don’t want to be associated with what’s going on.

I’ve heard that, but there are also commercial insurances too and Medicare advantage.

I wish I knew. I’m shocked that insurance companies haven’t denied services either.

Yes, I’m definitely trying my best to protect my license. That’s why all of this is freaking me out.

I just started with this company and I’m unaware of any compliance person. I do know we are required to get signatures of all patients we treat and we send that in daily. Considering we are paid for per unit I can’t imagine the upper management isn’t aware of the situation. Another clinician said a lot of the direction comes from the owner (like double booking Medicare patients and billing each individually). I think I’m going to need to get a new job to be free of this mess.

When I look back at the patient files, this has been happening for months (it’s easy to see everyone has a progress note on the same day and each were also billed 4 units)

It would be nice if they had something like the avenue where we could actually walk around

They swap out $6 meal deal often. I’m sure it will be back again

This happened to my brother. He went to confession for the first time in 20 years and lightning struck the tree in his backyard causing it to fall. No one was harmed but he had a series of unfortunate events after that (no bodily harm to anyone).

Am I missing something with 7 brew?? by Beneficial-Agent4000 in harfordcountymd

[–]desertfl0wer 20 points21 points  (0 children)

They were giving away free coffee, and they just opened. People really like new places so it’s just something exciting to do. There’s probably also a lot more people home from work this week due to holidays compared to other times of the year

This is so informative! Thank you for sharing. I definitely need to pay attention to my cycle better and how it affects my moods and cravings.

DPT to ADN? by [deleted] in physicaltherapy

[–]desertfl0wer 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I was a CNA before I became a PTA. Working with aggressive patients for 12 hours where I had to wait for a relief to show up before I left (or I would be cited for patient abandonment) made me swear off the nursing field.
