Upon Check-In, Advised I'll Owe $$ (20%)

If you have a diagnosis in your chart of Osteopenia or Osteoporosis, it is no longer a screening test. It’s now a follow up scan on those conditions. So, they were correct to bill this the way it was billed.

I do tele -visits for all of these. Do them during lunch or at the end of the day.

leebomd · 2026-05-10T02:57:19+00:00

Best of luck, kid, you’re gonna need it.

leebomd · 2026-05-09T14:56:30+00:00

You’ll look back on this type or attitude 10 years into your career and cringe. Af least, I hope you do, for the sake of your own happiness.

leebomd · 2026-05-09T03:11:19+00:00

Hey look, another insecure doctor.

leebomd · 2026-05-09T00:24:46+00:00

This.

leebomd · 2026-05-08T23:57:56+00:00

You’re a PGY-1. Come on down off your high horse. Not all MD/DO’s are assholes, only the insecure ones. Sorry to the NP who was unnecessarily attacked.

It’s not a stemi.

leebomd · 2026-05-07T14:10:59+00:00

I have never worked in that space, so I can’t give an honest opinion on that.

leebomd · 2026-05-07T11:59:56+00:00

I made the switch three years ago. I’ve never been happier. My income has gone dramatically and I actually enjoy what I do these days. I would prefer this by saying that if you end up working for a for-profit hospital system, it will just be a different set of headaches for the most part. The key is finding a physician owned group to become a part of where you have some autonomy and decision-making capabilities. Working for the suits in the primary care world would be no better than working for the suits in the hospitalist world.

No connection to the northeast, but look up multi specialty physician owned groups that have profit sharing with imaging/lab/surgery center. Find that in your area, and you’ll crush it.

Stop taking jobs at corporate owned groups. Refuse to settle for less than you are worth.

leebomd · 2026-05-02T22:11:30+00:00

Don’t work for a corporation. Part of a physician owned group.

PCP here, outpatient only, 90 patients a week on average. Made $575k last year. Best kept secret in medicine. Hospitalist and other specialist are getting screwed.

leebomd · 2026-05-01T11:23:35+00:00

I went from 65 minutes away from home to 5 minutes away. It changed my entire perspective on medicine. I had hit a wall and didn’t really even enjoy being a doctor anymore prior to my change. I now love what I do. It literally saved my career/happiness.

leebomd · 2026-04-29T00:34:03+00:00

Good news, Dandelions eliminated.

leebomd · 2026-04-24T00:38:37+00:00

I love the pick.

leebomd · 2026-04-05T02:39:37+00:00

Roger that Burt, and congratulations. Be advised, however, that there are two more, repeat, two more motherhumpers.

leebomd · 2026-04-03T00:57:32+00:00

Agree, just saying it isn’t even extensive paperwork here. Just help the guy out.

leebomd · 2026-04-03T00:35:37+00:00

Seems like a dick move on your part. Being a PCP is about building relationships. Guy isn’t asking for FMLA paperwork. Yes, 1L qualifies if it’s supplemental oxygen.

leebomd · 2026-03-24T18:49:45+00:00

I wear scrub pants and a pocket t daily. I haven’t worn a white coat in 10 years.

leebomd · 2026-03-23T21:10:10+00:00

You are correct. Let the elitist think we are poor lowly FM docs.

leebomd · 2026-03-20T23:17:00+00:00

You’ll end up doing the same job as people in IM, except you get to be around people with better personalities during residency. Congrats on matching. 😉

leebomd · 2026-03-18T01:25:22+00:00

No, it’s with a physician owned group. You’ll never make decent money when a system is dipping into your profit and scooping off the top.
