Best Website featuring Paramedic Terminology - a glossary maybe? Trying the old medicine category for this question again...any Paramedics out there know of anything helpful...it doesn't have to be a website, just a resource would be helpful, especially if there was something that translated real field medical terminology into relevant modern slang...like the "chest dart"...(I forget the technical term)...etc etc.

Would it be a pre-existing condition if you felt pain in your knee THEN got insurance before going to MD? Please help! I had knee pain and didn't have health insurance. I waited for a few weeks and hoped it would go away...and it didn't. Then I realized I should get health insurance in case it got worse. Please keep in mind that I have NEVER saw a doctor or health care professional about my knee. I found out today that my insurance is active and I want to see an orthopedic MD right away. My question is this: If I go to the doctor and get something done (like an MRI) would the insurance company try to argue that a potential injury is a pre-existing condition b/c the pain started b4 the insurance? Please keep in mind that the glossary insurance company's definition of a pre-existing condition is: " Any medical condition or injury for which medical advice, diagnosis, care or treatment, including the use of prescription drugs was recommended or received from a healthcare professional during the six (6) months immediately preceding the effective date of your medical insurance coverage."
The Definition of a Deltoid.? So, I've been checking lots of websites trying to find a definition of a Deltoid. This is in geometry, I don't want a medical definition (ie. anything about muscles). I've checked the geometry book and there's nothing about it in the glossary or index. It's the last part of my project so thanks for helping!
Breast Reduction Insurance Coverage? My wife has been seeking a Breast Reduction procedure. We recently went to see a second plastic surgeon for a new opinion. We gathered together an immense amount of medical opinions stating that the size of my wife's breasts are causing physical damage and, if reduced, she'd be able to return to proper mobility, able to exercise, and drastically reduce her pain. We have letters from her Endocrinologist, our GP, her Chiropractor, her Rheumatologist, another plastic surgeon, and the current surgeon. The current surgeon stated that he could remove 800g to alleviate the physical issues. The surgeon called my wife saying that United Health Care acknowledged that she fits the physical criteria needed for a breast reduction but that our plan does not cover breast reductions. So it was rejected. Nonetheless, UHC is now on record stating that she meets the physical criteria. I spent several hours researching our exact plan and what is covered. My company has us under United Health Care Choice Plus. I searched and found the 2011 Explanation of Benefits for the Colorado Choice Plus plan--the exact one my company uses. The entire EOB is 171 pages. However, I did capture the essential pieces for my wife's case. This is how I interpreted the language. Please tell me if I'm analyzing the language wrong or am confused. First, the EOB describes Benefit exclusions in Section 8- Exclusions. Breast Reduction is listed 9th in the list. : "9. breast reduction except as coverage is required by the Women's Health and Cancer Right's Act of 1998 for which Benefits are described under Reconstructive Procedures in Section 6, Additional Coverage Details." So, I interpreted this as such: Breast reduction is covered by the Women's Health and Cancer Right's act but also includes Benefits described under "Reconstructive Procedures" in Section 6- Additional Coverage Details. Section 6 goes into detail as to what is defined as "Reconstructive Procedures." The main points I focused on are: "Reconstructive Procedures are services performed when the primary purpose of the procedure is either to treat a medical condition or to improve or restore physiologic function for an organ or body part. Reconstructive procedures include surgery or other procedures which are associated with an Injury, Sickness or Congenital Anomaly. The primary result of the procedure is not a changed or improved physical appearance." My wife and I have provide an immense amount of documentation the damage to her body and the Congenital Anomaly. My wife met all the criteria. Her mother has very large breasts, as does her sister and her grandmother on both sides. According to every doctor she's visited, even though the Congenital Anomaly did not appear within the first 12 months, it was genetically predisposed and, when she started to develop, the Congenital Anomaly was exposed. Thus, she fits under the definition of "Congenital Anomaly." Also, according to this detailed definition, her breast reduction would be to improve or restore physiologic function. She is not seeking cosmetic improvement or psychological improvement. The breast reduction would be to improve her physiologically. Last, "Reconstructive Procedures", as defined in Section 14- Glossary is: "Reconstructive Procedure – a procedure performed to address a physical impairment where the expected outcome is restored or improved function. The primary purpose of a Reconstructive Procedure is either to treat a medical condition or to improve or restore physiologic function. Reconstructive Procedures include surgery or other procedures which are associated with an Injury, Sickness or Congenital Anomaly. The primary result of the procedure is not changed or improved physical appearance. The fact that a person may suffer psychologically as a result of the impairment does not classify surgery or any other procedure done to relieve the impairment as a Reconstructive Procedure." Again, the language of the EOB states that Reconstructive Procedures are intended to treat a medical condition (i.e. Cancer) or improve or restore physiologic function (i.e. my wife's pain and decreased movement, not to mention musculoskeletal strain, pain, and damage). These are the reasons for the breast reduction surgery, not for psychological or physical appearance reasons. I'm wondering if I interpreted this language correctly. And, if so, was the denial based upon a wrong insurance code? That is, the surgeon submitted it as Cosmetic Surgery or Breast Reduction rather than Reconstructive Procedure? If so--and I've contacted my HR Benefits manager directly, how would I go about resolving this? It seems clear to me that my company's plan covers Breast Reduction when determined to be a medical necessity. Thank you for any h So I called my insurance carrier. The claims adjuster stated that my wife met all the criteria for a breast reduction. She was shocked that her claim was denied. Her supervisor was called over to view the claim and also stated that my wife was eligible and was shocked it was denied. They said the language provided in the EOB, as shown above, does allow for physiological damage as a means of coverage. In other words, I was reading the language right. She should be covered under Reconstructive Procedures per my plan. I then talked to my company's HR Benefits Coordinator. She said that the language in the EOB does, indeed, cover breast reduction when injury to the body is prevalent, UHC Choice Plus *does* cover breast reduction. However, when a company chooses an insurance, the Coordinator (or HR) decides on several options of which they wish to cover. In the case of my company, the HR Benefits Coordinator did not include the Breast Reduction option. UHC, however, does offer Breast Reduction coverage under physiological damage. So, most of the user answers here are completely and utterly wrong.
What career path should I take? I will have to get a scholarship but I really haven't thought about the collage I want to go to ,YET. I either want to go into medical as in doctor in general care or physiology. Specifically a child physiologist. I am 13 and going to be 14 next year and am in 8th grade. I am an straight A student and usually only get around a 95 in my subjects. I am involved with YAC and YEP for the YMCA. Will be volunteering for YEP next year in 9th grade. I am involved with model UN in my school since last year in 7th grade. I am involved in SADD and the student council representative. I am definitely not a follower exept a follower of my own beliefs. I have gone through many family and financial trouble and come out of cutting and I never plan to cut again. I am poor. That's really all I can think of that would apply to getting a scholarship going to collage and choosing my career. What do you think? Plus glossary...

Sex and Gender are distinct and separate. Fact or Opinion? Sex marks the distinction between women and men as a result of their biological, physical and genetic differences and gender roles are set by convention and other social, economic, political and cultural forces” (One World Action Glossary: http://owa.netxtra.net/indepth/project.j… Sex and Gender are different as per the above definition and medical and legal professionals now accept the above Thoughts? Appletini Grateful if you would stop using the *T* word I have my reasons and - persistently using it - in spite of the obvious fact that I have changed my ID for good reason - is illegal. Helena the permutations you describe are covered in the definition of gender sex and sexuality in the OP Appletini I have asked you politely and you have now taken offense and what you *decide* is irrelevant. Identifying me by my real name is illegal when I have expressly asked you not to and it is also considered online harassment It is no big deal as long as you simply stop using the T word and edit your answers accordingly Thanks in advance
