Even if he was treated as a super VIP, which I’m sure he was, that’s REALLY fast…too fast.He probably told them he ain't got no insurance..That always speeds things up and gets you sent on your way..
Could be Miami’s docs stepped on our Cincy doc’s toes, too.
You need a neurologist or neurosurgeon to give the all clear. Those consults take at least an hour, if not more.
Getting him into the ER, registered, seen by ER doc, orders put in and nurse carries out orders, ER doc or nurse calls the consult, he has to go get a CT, (possibly MRI but I doubt it), then those docs have to review everything and also assess him/talk to his docs, nurse then has to discharge him.
All the while they also have all the traumas and other patients coming in to the ER, other patients already there, etc.
That would be INSANELY great time, like unbelievably great. That’s why I don’t believe it.
I remember when no insurance got you wheeled directly out to the parking lot..I figured out the trick though..The magic words.. I'm suicidal! They'll sell off a couple of hospital wings then if needed.. You ain't allowed to kill yourself. That's THEIR freakin job! Lol
