You're right. Med. records can be altered and we need to put our heads together and come up with some ideas and share/submit them to our doctors and op's. They're doing a lot for us and we need to show them that we support them and appreciate (of course, the legit ones) them for putting themselves on the line to treat us and all people who seek their services. It's hard to weed out people who are abusing their services as good doctors BELIEVE what their patients tell them unless they have a reason not take what they tell them at face value. SO... we need to come up with some ideas.
Medical records and proof of who you are is a good start.
But, what else? I'll post when I get some ideas.
