yup we dont touch em anymore.

matty i have a lil secret for you. doctors reduce their bills to the client after we settle and you cut the check. lol like you dont know that already thoo. but thats it, thats the only unwritten trick we have.

FD - your probably ref to CPT codes, which as collusus touches on, the more CPT codes a client/patient has, the more a computer printout shows the injuries and treatment, the more they will get paid.

we used to write out the treatments rec'd in our demands but found that adjusters werent reading and considering every treatment all the time. with CPT codes, the adjuster just plugs in the codes or counts them and the adjuster has a full data-code driven idea of the treatment. is my understanding of this correct?

so freakin ready to blow a hole thru the door and get outta here. co workers are dropping like flies.
