Still confused - so is it hold and call, or hold, on call?
Subject: Still confused - so is it hold and call, or hold, on call?
Thanks, but my physician mumbles it so fast that I cannot make out if it is "hold and call" or "hold, on call."
hold and call
Subject: hold and call
Is there something like "hold and call" for any test like an x-ray or CAT scan, that needs to be done urgently on a patient before the patient leaves the office?
Context, please! What are you doing - xray, scan, office visit, etc.?

Subject: PS -Did you think to call a pharmacy? sm
This is what I did when something like this comes up. I know they want you to use the slightest amount possible, and usually never prescribe more than a small tube at a time. This is a very huge amount. I find pharmacists usually are very helpful if you don't ask them more than a few times a year. I would rather do this than say "a pound," just picture it in your head - that's a lot.

....an "acute abdomen series." It is three plain x-rays - one of the abdomen with the patient flat (lying down), one of the abdomen with the patient standing upright, and a third x-ray of the chest to include the diaphragms (also with patient upright) so they can see if there is free air under the diaphragm (which can happen with bowel perforation in cases of diverticulitis, Crohn's, or other bowel diseases).

Outpatient hold admission versus inpatient
Subject: Outpatient hold admission versus inpatient
Please read this with a little grain of salt, since I don't have enough info to be sure in this case, but this has happened to me before. Most hospitals and most insurance companies have a "24 hour hold bed" policy of some sort. The patient is considered an outpatient, (and charged the lesser "hold bed" charge) even though admitted to the hospital, for the first 24 hours, or 23 hours and 59 minutes. Maybe this doc is saying that the EKG was done at that time in the admission - hour #23, minute #____. Again, use caution, and if this is the case, the doctor sure SHOULD have said "at 23 hours X minutes after" admission or clarified it somehow. But this is just food for thought, since I have had docs dictate using the number of hours since the patient was admitted, though I'm happy to say they the docs always made it known that that's the way they were counting down the hold bed time.
