Which hospitalist would you rather have showing up to discuss your new diagnosis of metastatic lung cancer while trying to get you to quit smoking right now (and billing a high level hospital follow up 99233 and a CPT 99406) while he does it?
Happy before his haircut? Or Happy after his haircut? Or would it matter to you? Not that you have a choice. I'm going to show up either way. Your outpatient primary doctor has left the hospital forever. It's just me and you kid. Whether you get Happy before his haircut or after his haircut is a luck of the draw. Just be glad I test positive for the handsome sign. Some patients aren't so lucky.
