Second, I must explain my illness to you before I do it, and then you think you should do it before accepting it, not without your knowledge.
Third, if you can't reimburse this matter, you must have known it before you did it.
Finally, I advise you to make a comprehensive statement. Don't take it out of context, confuse people, and don't sell it badly, because it must be expensive for a reason.
It is better to make money than to have the energy to gain sympathy.
Some diseases can be cured, but poor diseases can't.
You may not know that there is a kind of CT called PET/CT, and one is about 30 million RMB! An examination ranges from 6500 yuan to 9000 yuan, which is basically not within the scope of medical insurance reimbursement. But it is indeed the top imaging equipment for detecting tumor systemic metastasis at present.
This device is a combination of PET and CT, and it is a high-end device similar to a bone scanner. It is to inject radioactive substances in vitro into the human body intravenously, and after being absorbed by the tissue, it detects which parts of the tissue have absorbed radioactive substances, so as to judge and find malignant tumors with deeper or smaller concealment.
This kind of examination is generally used to detect whether there are distant tumors in various parts of the body in detail before resection of malignant tumors. Once distant metastasis is found, the treatment will be changed and the operation may be terminated. It is indeed a good examination method for some patients with high tumor markers who cannot find specific tumors by ordinary examination.
Specifically, the patient's lymph nodes are swollen, and the doctor may wonder whether the tumor has metastasized to the lymph nodes or lymphoma. PET/CT can determine the local range of diseased lymph nodes in the whole body, or it may find out the location of the real murderer-hidden malignant tumor. Therefore, a responsible doctor has chosen a suitable examination mode for you.
It's PET-CT, right The advantage of this kind of examination is non-invasive, but the disadvantage is that it does not apply for medical insurance. Of course, in the end, it depends on pathological examination. You can talk to your doctor and see if there are other ways to check, according to your financial strength.
More than 7000 yuan, at your own expense, full-body CT examination, you must be talking about PET-CT.
Unexplained lymph node enlargement, after excluding infection factors, the possibility of malignant tumor should be ruled out. After the patient was admitted to the hospital, the doctor asked for this examination, which shows that his condition is highly suspected of tumor at first.
PET is positron emission computed tomography, which can provide molecular information such as function and metabolism, while CT is computed tomography, which can provide detailed anatomical and pathological information. PET-CT is the perfect combination of two imaging technologies, which makes the advantages of the two imaging technologies complementary. Through this high-level imaging examination method, we can diagnose the tumor early, judge whether the tumor recurs, stages and re-stages, find the primary focus and metastatic focus of the tumor, and guide and evaluate the treatment plan of the tumor. PET-CT is a safe, reliable, painless and non-invasive examination, and it is a good examination item for patients with cardiovascular diseases and tumors.
The price, whether the medical insurance can be reimbursed, and the reasons for the investigation must be told by the doctor and approved by the family.
Very reasonable! If you open other tests, you will have to do this after that! Finally, the phone bill quadrupled!
Sensory problems are not clearly described. First of all, this is not a simple CT, but a PET-CT. At present, this test is self-funded and is not included in medical insurance. Secondly, it is recommended to know the condition in detail from the competent doctor and why this examination should be done. If it's lymph node enlargement caused by a common cold and fever, it's definitely not necessary. However, if lymph node metastasis caused by some malignant lesions is considered, it is necessary to do this examination.
It is not easy for doctors to work, and it is also difficult for patients to earn money. Let's communicate well first!
Lymphadenitis must be suspected of other problems before petCT is needed. The price is not set by hospitals and doctors. You can choose not to do it, but you did it and found out what the problem was. Definitely worth it. Don't worry, I found nothing.
You can do a biopsy first. If it is not tumor metastasis, PET-ct is not needed. If so, it is necessary.
Just don't check the signature. Don't believe it if you don't believe it! What are you talking about? Money is not for doctors!
PET-CT examination, medical insurance is not reimbursed, it is the same everywhere. At present, medical insurance is in a deficit state. To put it simply, the rural cooperative medical system pays too little insurance, but the cost of seeing a doctor far exceeds the money paid, and the state has been subsidizing it.
As a medical insurance bureau, doctors have been required to limit medical insurance expenditures.
This PET-CT can be used to examine systemic tumors according to the metabolic rate of tissues.
However, I can tell you clearly that you can also refuse to do this test. The doctor only gives advice on diagnosis and treatment according to the condition, and the final decision is in the hands of the patient himself.
As for your question, you think the doctor's diagnosis and treatment is unreasonable, and you can completely refuse to do this examination. No one will blame you. Don't think too much about what the doctor will do.
Generally speaking, according to the patient's condition, I will advise him to do PET-CT if necessary, but I will also make it clear that it doesn't matter if he is willing to do it at his own expense without reimbursement of medical insurance. This kind of inspection has its unique advantages.
Medicine is an advanced diagnosis and treatment equipment that promotes science and technology, promotes medical development and can better serve the clinic. Most people can still spend thousands of dollars, which some ordinary people can't afford, which is understandable.
More trust and understanding, more hope, don't forget that the enemy of doctors and patients is disease. Don't put doctors on the opposite side. This is not good for the patient.
