And they’ve got an entire diagnostics team working on a single patient multiple days in a row, breaking into their house, running lab tests, and doing basically every single task a hospital has an entire staff for.
Would love to see the hospital bill
The breaking into the patient's house thing became basically a running joke by the end. They did it nearly every episode.
"Small chance the patient is lying? Break into his house, shoot his dog and steal his wife. Also, foreman is black."
He actually mentions at one point that part of why he picked Foreman was because of his juvenile criminal history.
I love how about three seasons in, everyone forgets that they're doing something technically illegal.
It's like copaganda for the health industry. Doctorganda?
We can shorten that to Docaganda and make it a bit snappier
Yeah, they get the billionaire treatment. I imagine this is what private healthcare is like if you have unlimited money.
Wait a second...which department breaks into your house?
Extra-external Medicine.
Real reason why medical treatment in the US costs more than twice per-person than every other country.
