i have to write a paper about this read below i don’t even understand what he want plz help where do i start

Dr. Little has asked that you create a program specifically designed to track the license and continuing education requirements for some hospital professionals (both MDs and radiology technicians).

To do this, you must first study programming basics, computer language, and available products on the market that might be utilized. Deciding that no product exists to meet your needs, you choose to develop your own program.

Include such related topics as the following:

software specifications
software design
writing the software
validation and debugging

i am so lost . if you can just point me in the right direction i will be greatful. if you cant help me plz dont be a smart butt and put something rude on htere ty very much
this si for a medical billing and coding class

Pregnant, no insurance, no Medicaid, OBGYN fees are too high! Any advice?

radiology — Sun, 15 Jan 2012 23:51:06 +0000

Hi! I am 19 weeks pregnant. I do not work because I already have a son and daycare costs are higher than I used to earn as a full-time licensed social worker. My husband is self-employed and we do alright, but we are not wealthy. We do not have insurance because it is very expensive for those who are self-employed. Besides, if we got insurance now, no company that we’ve called will cover pregnancy. I did not know I was pregnant until I was 14 weeks along. I called all the doctors in my area and chose the 2nd cheapest. (The cheapest is located in a questionable area.) Since the doctor takes the global fee and divides it by the number of months you have left before delivery, I am paying 5 per visit. This week I have to pay for a 5 check up, a 5 ultrasound, and 0 for blood tests. We have begun the process to apply for Medicaid but the worker told me it does not look good…they consider gross income and not net for people who are self-employed. (I live in Greene County, Ohio.) I have contacted the Health Department but they will only save me about 00 total and I would have to deliver at a hospital that I do not prefer. We can continue to make the 5 payments each visit, but we are just trying to find a cheaper alternative. I have thought of just using a midwife and no doctor, but there is no option of an epidural this way. (I don’t think I want an epidural, but I want the option.) I also want to state that when I was pregnant with my son, we were in almost the same boat…I was employed, and had insurance through my employer until I quit my job in my 9th month. Of course, when I quit my job, I lost my insurance. I worked for a small private homeless shelter, so they were not required to offer COBRA. At that time, I acquired insurance through Cinergy. I paid them over 0 and I got scammed big time. They did not cover one penny of my doctor fees or hospital fees for myself or my son. I just want to make this known in case anyone out there is considering Cinergy. Thank you for reading my enormous story…I appreciate any advice you have to offer! (And just to nip some pessimists in the bud, I was on birth control…so please don’t bad-mouth us for getting pregnant without a plan in place. Although this baby is a surprise, we still consider this to be a blessing!!)

I need some advice on which profession to go into…?

radiology — Fri, 13 Jan 2012 14:48:23 +0000

I am 44yrs old and am ready to go back to school, my backround is all clerical, medical secretary backround. I am a single mom and looking to up my pay after years of struggling on the measly pay for clerical work. I am looking into a Radiology tech (2yrs) or Licensed Practical Nurse (1yr). And I have to admit in the back of my head I question myself if I will be too old for these careers in 5-10 yrs. I know this type of thinking is crazy! What do you think? Any suggestions would be appreciated. (Sigh! wish I would have gone to school when I was young, let this be a lesson to you young ones who put off going to school !!).

Advice? Unsure of what to do…?

radiology — Mon, 26 Sep 2011 08:49:02 +0000

I’m 31 weeks pregnant today and very happy! My official due date is April 3rd, although the ultrasound date is April 1st. I am having some problems with back pain and lots of problems with sleeping through the night (i keep waking up every hour or two to go to the bathroom or get a drink of water … or move. Is that normal?).
This is my question…
I am done with my student teaching but I still need to take my Praxis tests for my certification. They are quite expensive, non refundable and are held every 2 months. The next session would be around March 19th, ….. but I’m due on April 3rd? Is that too close to call or should that be okay?

Thanks!

Would like some medical advice.?

i am 21 years old and am an active automotive technician.

ive been repairing and diagnosing vehicles since i was about 14.

unfortuanetly i think i might have done something to my back

it started as a stiffness and now has progressed to constant pain and swelling in my back. i am still working because i love what i do and leaving my job or doing something else really isnt an option for me as i have taken all my certifications and come way too far in this field.

its hard to describe the pain or the exact location. i know for a fact its not a muscle because i can feel it in my spine. im constantly trying to crack my back or stretch it to get any kind of relief but it is only temporary or makes it worse… its not exactly lower back. but its not in the middle either. just alittle lower than the middle of my back.

my only problem is that i do not currently have health insurance. so an mri is kinda out of the question atleast for about 3 more months until my health insurance is back.

unfortuanetly this pain is awful and is constantly making my days harder. it seems to be getting worse with time.

sleep is a constant struggle as i wake up many times a night to either get up and stretch or to change positions.

the pain first started about a year or so ago. doctor originally thought it was a muscle. gave me every muscle relaxer he could think of. physical therapy also and none of it helped.

the only thing that helped my pain was either hydrocodone or oxycodone. i had a bottle of 15 hydrocodone 5mg/500′s from an e.r. visit and i was taking halves and it lasted me almost a month. didnt exactly take the pain away but helped atleast for a couple hours.

i was gonna goto my doctor and pay myself. i want to try to explain to him that i need something for pain. just until i get health insurance back and i can get an mri and get it taken care of for real, not just covered up by pills.

my only fear is, is that im only 21 yrs old and i dont know if my doctor will be comfortable with prescribing me hydrocodone or oxycodone due to fear of abuse or addiction, due to all the people taking advantage of their doctors or faking or whatever pathetic things people do for drugs now.

i have no history of drug or alchohol dependance and ive had the same family doctor since i was 10 yrs old. does anybody have any suggestions for me?

work and sleep are the worst times for me. its almost unbearable at times. it would be a godsend to have something to control my pain. atleast temporarily till i can get this problem fixed.
forgot to mention i have been to a chiro many times..didnt help. only made the pain worse for a few days till it went back to the normal pain…

I am considering a career in radiology. Can I get some advice?

radiology — Fri, 25 Mar 2011 21:48:49 +0000

I will probably start with a two year program and get my tech license. I don’t know about after, but I was wondering if anyone could give me some advice about being an x-ray tech, for schooling and on the job. Thanks so much!!
Well, I was just wondering how difficult the program is, and if it is in pretty high demand right now, and possibly the average starting salary in Texas, if anyone knows. Thanks so much!!!!
