[quote=Anonymous]Elderly man, heart failure patient, recent history of acute kidney failure, sudden onset diabetes, and pancreatic cysts, presenting with sudden abdominal swelling with severe pain on a Saturday. ER or not? We consulted virtually with a relative who is a hospitalist doctor, who recommended ER. He was held over night for observation. No cause found for the pain and swelling, which went down the next day. He was found to be severely anemic and given two pints of blood. Insurance refused coverage on grounds that a blood transfusion does not require a hospital stay. (We are appealing.) [/quote]
