Is There A Hospital Or Clinic That Would Sponsor Me In Going Back To Respiratory Therapy School In San Diego?
Posted by admin in Careers in PT on January 28, 2010
I have over 20 yrs of experience in respiratory therapy but I left the field in 1998 due to a physical problem, since the my license has lapsed, i am looking for a hospital that would sponsor me in going back to school to get my license renewed. I really want to get back into the field. I am not in a good financial situation right now so it would be difficult for me to pay for going to school. I hope someone can help me. I prefer the san diego area since that is where I currently live.

The clinic will not pay for any of the 5 visits i had to them in the last month(while they pushed me away saying the pain i had was normal)nor will they pay for the ortho. or the physical therapy, and whatever else i have to have to get my shoulder back. How can they get away with this?

I have had fusion surgery on my L5&L4 discs in my lower back about 1 year ago.I have went threw physical therapy and still have tremendous pain some days worse than others.Well my doc said either i should have another surgery to take out the rods and screws or go to a pain clinic to manage my pain.I am currently prescribed vicodin and percocet,but have to take more than prescribed to help reduce the pain but of course it never takes the pain away.just wondering if a pain clinic is a good option.do they do urine tests.because i smoke pot to help ease the pain.yeah i know what your thinking it’s an excuse,but it is the only thing that lets me get at least 4 hrs. of sleep a night.otherwise i sleep for about 30 min. then i’m up in pain and have to take meds.will a pain clinic even work with me?
Anyone Ever Been To A Pain Clinic?
Posted by admin in Careers in PT on January 24, 2010
am 24 year old who had a baby on the 25th of September. While in labor receiving my epidural I was stuck me about 6 times to try and make it work. Once I could feel my legs again and walk my back hurt severely. I has three kids 4, 15 months and almost 3 months and this pain has made it hard to do just about everything, giving baths,changing diapers,unloading the car, picking up my 15 month old. I am also a hairstylist and it hurts my back to be on my feet for long as well as bending over to perform shampoo and waxing services.Even driving hurts me. I also get a shooting pain that goes into my left butt cheek, and now most recently I am experiencing pretty bad foot pain also on the left side. My OB prescribed me percocet at my six week check up and it was for 20 of them, that lasted maybe a week. I was taking 2 pills every 4 hours to ease my pain. I began physical therapy for a month and I still had back sometimes even more after. I went to see my Ob to have a mirena inserted(sorry TMI)and told her physical therapy is doing nothing.She suggested a pain clinic and prescribed my more percocets, this time 30 which lasted me about a week and a half, again taking 2 at a time every 4 or 5 hours.Has anyone ever been to a pain clinic?Will they prescribe me a stronger form of pain medication?Any other ladies out there have back pain following an epidural from labor? I need some input. I hate calling to see if the doctor can call me in something because I almost feel like they are looking at me funny but I know with the pain I have I need more medication or the problem fixed! HELP PLEASE !

I Am Opening Up A Physical Therapy Clinic, How Do I Get Insurance Contracts So I Can Bill The Insurance Co.?
Posted by admin in Careers in PT on January 7, 2010
Typically you set up relationships with attorneys. And they do the work of funneling you business and getting the bills paid. It depends on what state you are in if you can direct bill insurance companies. You need to know if you are in a PIP state or a med pay state.
