Asking doctors about Kaiser will be an eye opening experience for you.
- rscho 2y agoIn what way? I'm curious, because I'm a European doc, and things are gravitating towards the US model around here.
- blindriver 2y agoI know Kaiser doctors. They mostly like it at least in Norcal. They said Socal Kaiser wasn't as good. My own Kaiser doctor said that Kaiser has been pushing more and more work on her like taking notes, etc, and it's frustrating but as far as I can tell it's a lot better than dealing with insurance companies. She gives me everything I request, like endoscopy, MRI, CT scan, blood tests, prescriptions, etc. The only time I was rejected was when I asked to see if blood sugar monitor could be covered but that was rejected because I'm only pre-diabetic and not diabetic.
- novok 2y agoPsychology / Therapy: A horrible model that doesn't work properly. Limited to seeing patients once a month when they need it to be once a week, and constant fighting with the system by clinicians and patients. Overloaded schedules are ultimately unethical. Doctors: It's like working for any other hospital; it's not bad.
