Why are dentists referred to as doctors? I have been reflecting on the feeling of value and respect. While #pharmacists provide vital patient care, our contributions are often overlooked. In order to feel valued and respected and fully acknowledge our significant role within healthcare, it is necessary to bridge gaps in public understanding. This is evident when we compare ourselves to #dentists, who are frequently referred to as #doctors. However, the question arises: why are dentists called doctors? Upon exploring the origins of this designation, I found that dentists earned this title based on their diagnostic and therapeutic capabilities. Dentists #diagnose and treat dental issues independently, implying that they possess the knowledge and skills of a physician, which is why they are referred to as doctors. However, pharmacists’ expertise has significantly broadened over the last decade; we are increasingly becoming prescribers, and very soon, all pharmacists will have this capability. Does it not, therefore, makes sense for us to be treated the same way as dentists, with respect and recognition for our skills and expertise? https://lnkd.in/etwAKzpW

AMARA HOSPITAL : A Firsthand Experience: Is This Empathy or Exploitation? Recently, I experienced an incident at Amara Hospital that has left me questioning the values they advertise so widely—empathy, humanity, and patient care. After a surgery for which an advance payment of ₹3 lakhs was made without any hesitation, I went for a routine dressing appointment with another doctor. To my shock, the medical file was held hostage unless the following were replaced or paid for immediately: Ointment Gloves Doctor’s dressing fee (₹935 total). What’s baffling is that this could easily have been billed internally or managed through the hospital’s inventory. Instead, I was forced to replace these items on the spot to retrieve the medical records, even though this was just a follow-up after a major procedure. Is this how healthcare operates now? Is this the hospital protocol for treating patients, particularly when they market themselves as empathetic caregivers? This behavior contradicts the values they showcase in their advertisements. Such ill-treatment and withholding of patient records are unethical and unfair. A hospital's primary responsibility is to prioritize the well-being of patients, not to entangle them in unnecessary hurdles or exploit them during vulnerable times. This is a concerning example of how the medical system can sometimes lose sight of its core purpose—care and compassion. I hope this message reaches those who can bring change. Patients deserve better. you bill the patients and make your money but holding of the health records for just paymnet of replacment of medications that can be managed internally is not fair. So this is a calssic example of the movie Tagore (In Telugu) and Ramana( In Tamil) that patient even if expired also the information will be provided after clearing the bill and the body after hours of death , this is called the Health Protocols that we have in the system. Lokesh Nara, Pawan Kalyan Konidala , pls look in to standardizing the Medical protocols, that is applicable to all.

Medical coding is the process of translating healthcare diagnoses, procedures, medical services, and equipment into standardized codes. These codes, derived from systems such as ICD, CPT, and HCPCS, ensure uniform documentation across the healthcare industry. The benefits of medical coding are vast: it guarantees accurate billing, leading to proper reimbursement for healthcare providers and minimizing errors. It streamlines healthcare management, making administrative processes more efficient. Accurate coding enhances patient care by ensuring precise and consistent patient records. Additionally, it facilitates data analysis for healthcare research and public health monitoring, aids in regulatory compliance, and opens numerous career opportunities for skilled professionals in various healthcare settings. #medicalcoding #medicalbilling #healthcare #doctors #medical #coding #medicalcoder #physicians #physician #icd #cpt #practicemanagement #medicalbillingandcoding #credentialing #revenuecyclemanagement #hospitals #cpc #telemedicine #physicaltherapy #medicare #medicaid #billingexperts #ehr #armanagement #grouppractices #hospitalmanagement #urology #medicalbillingandcollections #healthmanagement #teskacademy

In todays world, information is GOLD and it is rightly said. BUT… Did you know that most of us underestimate the importance of the information that we own and we keep gathering throughout our lives! 🥇 For every patient you treat… starting right from when you hear the patients complaint till the end of the patients treatment, you are collecting a treasure trove of information, literally! So, why is this information so important? Most of the Doctors do not realize this, but if you start doing the right analysis of information across multiple patients, you can uncover amazing treatment patterns and how effective has been your practice. This is apart from understanding the demographic details, prevalent diseases, issues faced, lifestyles & psychology of your patients where you practice. Information when analyzed correctly to uncover patterns, can greatly help doctors with various insights related to their practice (& even about the population characteristics). Such super-valuable insights can help you make changes in the way you treat your patients and even set or change appropriate treatment protocols to target the specific patterns. Eventually, this is how your 'way of functioning' can set your clinic apart and give you and your patients a win-win situation.
