We should call it healthcare in installments what is not infrequently staged in the emergency room of the Cosenza hospitals. We should call it healthcare in installments but the “account” – which is sometimes not only cheap … – – you pay, then, all in a bang. This happened to a family from Cosenza on a holiday on the Tyrrhenian coast. In recent days, father and daughter have arrived in the emergency room of the “San Francesco di Paola”.
The girl accused the bleeding of an ear and the circumstance as well as strange appeared even a little worrying.
At the Triage of the Tyrrhenian hospital, however, instead of an urgent code they “delivered” to parent and daughter the precious advice to contact the Annunziata emergency room, about thirty kilometers away, not around the corner. Because there, in the Tyrrhenian structure, they could have done little and nothing, since, given the timetable – there were about 21 – no otolaryngohra was not on duty.
And presumably it didn’t even have to be available, otherwise …
So, without a diagnosis and with the heart in the throat, father daughter, they left for Cosenza.
In thirty kilometers or even more, the hope that the blood loss has not been the symptom of a serious pathology and that – in the army of the Cuban doctors hired in the goddess of the Annunciation – there was one who had not exactly studied by otolaryrigoiaitra but that at least had familiarize (also meant skills) for the pathologies of the ear.
A hope this last duration just thirty kilometers or a little more.
Because arrived at the Annunciation, received the blue code and waited once that on certain occasions seems to be dilated to the invert, father and daughter had to resume, after a summary dressing, the way home. Because even there, in the emergency room of the Annunziata, in the army of the Cuban doctors, there was no doctor who could remotely take the place of an otorinolaringoiatra. Before resignation, however – again this time without a precise diagnosis – the girl is recommended to return the next day and to be visited by a specialist. I recommend following the letter.
New journey, a new pierce to the triage and usually waiting for the round for the visit, at the end of which father and daughter saw the account present, pardon the ticket, of just over forty euros. A fair figure for an equitable for a visit if it had not been carried out, however, after two unnecessary access to the emergency room. A figure that looks at it from a certain angle takes on the geometry of a burland on which a series of reasons from dialectic could be objected not very consonant to a public reflection. The unavoidable fact remains, in any case, that health in the province is a combination of boxes and luck. It is a bit like the game of the goose. The nuts are missing, of course. But those who go to the emergency room must be prepared to face a kind of game. That most of the time it is an absurd spiral of combinations and joints and in the end it is already good when the account to be paid is only cheap.
