The Healthcare debate in our house/dr's office:
If I make a sick appointment for Child A, and worry that Child B has/will soon end up with the same thing (as usually happens in our house), is it wrong to ask the dr to do a quick check of Child B's ear/throat/offending part?
I figure it adds literally 1 minute (to an already short appt), and saves me another visit and another copay, and saves them an appt slot as well. Is that wrong? Should I have to pay 2 copays since it's 2 kids, even though it's within the same timeslot?
What do you think? Any doctors/nurses/healthcare schedulers that can weigh in?
