I dont view the job that way. I look at it like a being like a Hockey Referee. I'm not here to make up rules, I just put you in the penalty box for your behaviour. Now if me putting you in the penalty box ruins your life, maybe you shouldnt have been doing what ever it was that made me put you there in the first place. Its really cause and effect. If you dont want trouble, then just stay out of trouble. I'm not a better person than anyone I meet, I'm just doing a different job. Yes, I meet plenty of people I really dont like...but before this, I was a bartender in a concert nightclub so I met lots of people I didnt like there either. I also meet lots of cool people and people who manage to give me hope for the rest of the human race...so it balances out. Maybe your joking and I misunderstood your post....if so, I apologize. I spent 4 years in the Marine Corps Infantry and 6 months of that was in Magadishu Somalia. Those experiances made realize life is short, so I learned to laugh and enjoy the little things when I can since life gets all too serious on its own quick enough. One of the things I love about this job is helping people and and the goofy/hilarious situations you find yourself and them in... Naturally, I cant think of one right now thats fit to post on a family base website right now....but I'm sure you can think of about 50 or 60 stories of your own right now. The funniest one I can think of right now is the guy we arrested after he carjacked someone and got shot in the leg by the "victim". He was complaining about being shot with a "dirty bullet" He was annoyed because he was worried the wound would get infected.... (We picked him up at the hospital...he was fine). I agreed with him that it was bad manners to shoot someone with a dirty bullet. Then I told him all my bullets were clean. He was happy with that. Quote:
just went through your website.....very cool. I'm not a race fan, (although I do enjoy driving fast when the situation calls for it), so you'll have to forgive my ignorance....are you still doing stock car racing or are you firmly in IRL now? How did you get into Racing? I ask because sometimes the stories behind the job path can be as entertaining as the jobs themselves... I got out of the Marine Corps and was bartending my way through college going after my Paramedic license. I wanted to be a firefighter. In StL to be a StL City Firefighter, you need to have a city job, (just how things work out), or have your Medic's license. I knew I looked good on paper after the Marines for Law Enforcement, but I didnt really like cops a whole lot, (still hadnt gelled to the fact that most of my problems with cops as a kid were self inflicted). I applied for a job as a city police officer, and continued working towards my Medics license. About half way towards my license, I was offered a job as a police officer. I only intended to be a cop for a year or two, and then switch over to being a firefighter. Two weeks into the Police Academy I was hooked. Nick

As part of standing around and looking pretty - I work in Electronic Health Records.
You go to your doc and he pulls out this huge paper chart with every piece of paper or sticky note ever written about you in it. Hopefully everything is in there. Well all thats going electronic. The docs will carry a tabletPC and all your records wil be stored in a computer. I sell the program, I design components within the program, work with our partners on selling and installing and I use to train the docs on how to use it - but I won't do that anymore. I'd rather give birth than train physicians.

The clinic docs I know who have instituted EMR technology have watched their incomes drop precipitously because they can see only 23 patients a day instead of 35 due to the "time saving convenience" of the EMR. The systems have a tendency to go down hard during the busiest shifts in the ER, dragging the lab, x-ray and clinical services to a grinding halt when we can't access records, order tests, register patients and see results of studies. I have several research papers in my files which also show that new computer physician order entry systems in ERs have resulted in more errors than ever before due to misusing drop-down menus and bundled orders and keyboarding errors. The computer, which has always been touted as time-saving, error-reducing and capable of freeing up humans for more doctor-patient interaction, has done none of the above. We've been sold a bill of goods, but unfortunately, there is no turning back the clock. I spend more time than ever looking at LCD screens and less time seeing patients. |

 My own primary care doc is using my product. His revenue has increased dramatically. He used to bill at 2's & 3's, now he bills a few 3's and mostly 4's seeing the same amount of patients. My ortho and my pain management doc also use my product. I'm talking with the GI doc who just did my colonoscopy. Here is a case study of our product from your neck of the woods - http://www.imedica.com/Articles_MOS.aspx It's all about setting the proper expectation. You will NOT see 35 patients a day in the first month of use. Altho I had a derm see 43 her first day. It just depends on how quickly you adopt. My own PCP adapted very fast. My ortho, is seeing about 2/3 of his patient on the system. Lets face it, if a doc has been practicing medicine a certain way for 25 years, there is no way in the world that anyone can expect her/him to flip a switch and change to an EMR without hitting some bumps. If you hit our site, we do have a movie of an office encounter, if your interested. You do have to register and if you do register and don't want some pesky sales rep calling you, shoot me a PM and I'll make sure no one calls.
