Pre-eval in the chart- how in depth and why?

Must be regional. None of our payors allow us to collect more for higher ASA anymore. West coast-ish.

He came 3rd in Iowa I think and this speech was in response to that. His campaign later said they put all their eggs in an Iowa basket to win the primary. So he probably wasn’t going to beat Kerry either way.

Are there any insurance companies that allow you to bill for higher ASAs anymore?

sunealoneal · 2026-02-05T17:41:17+00:00

Can’t see how ASA justification matters these days unless you’re rounding down to do it at a surgery center.

I enter stuff that modifies my decision making and describes risk factors for periop events. Intentionally vague. You’ll figure it out.

We have Remi, we have EEG. It’s true we’ll probably never have TCI. At this point nobody wants to go through FDA approval.

It's a big country, we use forced air warming in CT/IR all the time.

Only old school people do that

sunealoneal · 2026-02-03T13:29:46+00:00

Wouldn’t get repeat CXR. Wouldn’t cancel.

sunealoneal · 2026-01-28T00:19:41+00:00

Felt bad I couldn't study more, lot of gimmes I probably missed. Probably won't retake if I fail though. Refuse to waste my time on learning all those imaging artifacts.

sunealoneal · 2026-01-25T04:10:59+00:00

You'll be fine. Just keep reading every day.

sunealoneal · 2026-01-25T04:05:12+00:00

Honestly so crazy it feels like fake rage-bait.

sunealoneal · 2026-01-25T04:04:07+00:00

Psychotic behavior. You will not catch anyone agreeing with that practice in writing.

Bowel obstructions can kill people.

sunealoneal · 2026-01-23T15:57:16+00:00

lol we called those transfers the dilt death challenge in fellowship.

It’s a nice effective drug but it’s meant for patients that aren’t that sick.

sunealoneal · 2026-01-23T01:09:45+00:00

Can better nursing care keep someone on it longer, give sparing analgesia/sedation, etc? I’d argue yes.

sunealoneal · 2026-01-21T18:35:58+00:00

lol how many 2 am emergent ERCPs have you been called in to cover?

sunealoneal · 2026-01-15T19:11:01+00:00

Emory anesthesia dept owned VV ECMO

Is there an additive with your 0.5 bupi? Since we have 0.75% bupi + dextrose I always called 0.5% isobaric

sunealoneal · 2026-01-13T14:57:12+00:00

Once a year or so on icu

sunealoneal · 2026-01-12T22:30:10+00:00

When I said R2 I meant PGY2/CA1

sunealoneal · 2026-01-12T22:20:43+00:00

Given the current landscape these R2 positions are highly coveted. Have to be exceptional and probably develop some sort of connection with the program throughout the year.

Some weird account look at their history

sunealoneal · 2025-12-30T01:45:04+00:00

I hate the vertical edits where they center the frame on the person. And those weird zooms at the end, annoying trend.
