Yeah it's an effed up system for sure. MRIs are more expensive too. All about money. I try my best to advocate for my patients who are ELDERLY often have no near family, etc etc. But younger people need advocates too. Such is life. Healthcare is sad. I'm glad i work in physical therapy it's not quite so bad but, it's getting worse. I refuse to make unethical decision on MY patients just to get them out the door or make insurance happy

I can totally see you doing these things!
And yes! Everyone going into a medical situation needs an advocate. Sometimes the advocate actually needs to stand between the patient and the family even.
But that's a whole nother can of worms.
Yes it is and i've had to stand between the patient's best interest and selfish bs fromn the family
