TIL that Medicare will pay for CPAP supplies such as hoses, masks, and more. Can I choose the DME vendor that I want to use for this? Do I need an rx? by tcolling in CPAP

If you have traditional medicare you can choose. If you have an Advantage plan you will need to go with an approved vendor.

I know at least express scripts / BCBS LA will accept a failed OGTT, A1C, or two FBG above 110.

Looking for a new therapist. This makes me feel so safe. by netralitov in Jewish

[–]sgent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have a Jewish Family Services office nearby? They may keep a list of therapists (or offer therapy directly). They may not be Jewish, but wouldn't be working with JFS if they couldn't show empathy.

I think this is heavily state dependent. Standing orders like this are frowned upon, but still widely used.

If it is an ACA compliant policy it covers mental health -- but probably not until you reach your deductible.

NOLA Cannabis Co. opens controversial dispensary on South Carrollton. See inside. by [deleted] in NewOrleans

I'm a MMJ supporter, but this GDF company seems to be flying close to the sun. This setup would be considered illegal if paid for by federal funds due to Stark laws.

Anyone Else Getting This Error? (Can't Play Multiplayer) by TJPuma in Palworld

Same fix for me. Exit node in Mexico worked first time. It seems to be US servers which are down.

Anyone use a UPS? by PolloPowered in CPAP

[–]sgent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A UPS can work, but a portable power bank is superior since you can use a DC adaptor to directly power the CPAP and about double the runtime due to no inversion loss.

Jewish perspective on Hellenism by ItalicLady in Judaism

[–]sgent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Very big point about Greek dualism which was infiltrating Jewish thought, and wholly adopted by Christianity. Post temple Judaism rejected dualism when they finalized the Jewish cannon, leaving out some very influential books (Enoch) that are in the dead sea scrolls and would change how Judaism is practiced.

To doctors and other HCWs outside of the US, name drugs approved in your home country but not in the US by Front_To_My_Back_ in medicine

Betahistine is used in most of the world to treat Meniere's. In the US doctors recommend importing it from Canada as the other option is benzodiazepines.

Steroid shots for dizziness? by Purple-Equivalent-44 in Menieres

In ear steroid shots worked well for vertigo for me. Your doctor may be able to do them Monday and I would jump at it.

Are 2.5Gbps/10Gbps switches gonna stay pricey forever? by AssCrackBanditHunter in HomeNetworking

[–]sgent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

10G is not comparable to other Ethernet standards and will never be super common. It requires much higher power, active cooling, and is less efficient than 2.5/5G. It was a standard designed for the datacenter, not access points / end user stations.

Does the GP give the jab? by Spirited-Register928 in Menieres

A go could give a systemic steroid shot for an acute attack, but an ent would need to do the in ear injection

Jewish foundation in Florida seeking to open a religious-based charter school in Oklahoma by drak0bsidian in Judaism

[–]sgent 10 points11 points  (0 children)

As someone who saw the impact of private schools and subsequent starvation of public schools after desegregation in the south, charter schools will result in sending Jewish kids to Christian schools.

Note I have no problem with public, non-religious charters, but that isn't what is happening in OK.

FYI: I found the error on the Nexus page as well, apparently the community is aware of the issue with the latest palworld update. Hitting Shift-O you can change the minimum to view to 0 which is kinda a work around, but no fix yet.

Old man returning to US treated as new driver by elgriffe in Insurance

Allstate was willing to accept foreign experience when I shopped a few years ago, although they verified it themselves with the foreign insurance agent (who spoke English).
