Heard a rumor
« on: October 28, 2011, 11:05:51 AM »
Heard a rumor that some of these clinics are sending their patients to their primary physicians to get diagnosed for things like MRSA and staph.

Why would they do this?  It couldn't be that if the neph does the diagnosis, the clinic would have to admit they have had an outbreak of the above?

If you too have heard this rumor, contact us.
