(31,011 posts)I'll get them for you.
A lot of us have the benefit of working in the medical field. We have knowledge and experience that you, a nursing student, might ought to consider rather than outright dismissing it.
I have experience not just clinically, but also in administration. I have worked in medical coding and billing, medical transcription, and medical records. I can explain why some procedures are covered and others are not. I can talk to you about preventative care and what qualifies.
Many of us do know what we are talking about. There are others who are more involved in other aspects of the medical field than I am or work in a higher position than I have. Some have much more experience in these areas than I have.
We can offer a lot, but when you have your mind closed to the facts of these issues you have raised there is nothing anyone will ever be able to tell you...even with a stack of evidence before you. I highly doubt even your instructors can bend your mind even in the slightest.
