Getting extra tests is rarely an issue in malpractice cases, more of a Medicare compliance issue.

Yeah, I don't think this is very true. Litigation has pushed a lot of clinicians

FYI- no life saving procedure there. Chronic clot is organized. Not breaking off

Prob not life saving but can significantly improve quality of life

Yep. Definitely not “life saving” though easy to frame that to patients

No harm done (unless u get a crazy bill).. might make u feel better
