[quote=Anonymous]My Dad's a pediatrician. Due to a state budget dispute he wasn't paid for his Medicaid patients for a year. My Dad didn't stop seeing Medicaid patients. He'll also spend a ton of unpaid time coordinating and getting referrals for his patients. One time my Dad and a colleague were flagged in a traffic jam by the police to help a motorcycle accident victim (the ambulance was having trouble getting there, the police went around asking for doctors). My Dad and his colleague did everything they could (the guy had already lost too much blood) despite not having any equipment. We found out he'd helped a woman having a cardiac episode on a plane when the airline sent him a bunch of free flights. He hadn't even mentioned it.[/quote]
