Treating a malpractice lawyer in the ER
Don't know how I missed this earlier this year. Charity Doc tells of an ER encounter with a malpractice attorney:"Yeah, I'm a personal injury lawyer. I have no problems telling doctors that. I get better care that way, actually. Makes you guys more careful around me."Another lawyer falling for the "more care = better care" fallacy. (via Waking Up Costs)

"Makes you guys more careful around me."
You and Charity Doc: "more careful" = "defensive medicine" and a whole lotta tests.
Me: "more careful" = wash your damn hands and don't cause me iatrogenic harm (like knowing the concentration of an acid before you put it on my manhood).
