TRP: Free of political butthurt since 1999.

The older I get, the less embarrassed I am about anything. I don't care if I'm showing my bra or boobs, or if my skirt is too short for you, or if I'm watching Fairly Oddparents, or if you hear "Drunk And I Don't Wanna Go Home" coming out of my car speakers, or if I get a face full of boob from drag queens, or...

After all, nothing really matters, so why the F not?

Context: most test results are automatically released to the patient portals I manage. Staff has an option to manually suppress individual tests, on an order-by-order basis, and must choose one of the approved reasons for suppressing the result. Pretty straightforward.

Last week we got a complaint from a patient that said a specific test result wasn't on their portal. We looked into it and the patient's doctor had manually suppressed it. The patient then contacted the provider who said "well I see it here, so this is an IT problem". We then reached out to that doctor to explain what happened and he insisted that since he can see it, and the patient can't, it's our problem to solve. I then had to explain the manual release process (click one button... literally that's it). And he still resisted, I'm not honestly sure he believes me.

But the reason this post is here and not in other threads is that I had to use the phrase "manual release" about 25 times today and I'm just giggling like an idiot the entire time.

So doctors can be dumb?

Who knew?!
