I appreciate the information.
For what it's worth, I'm not downvoting you. My server doesn't allow downvotes so I can't even see them.
I just want to make sure we're doing better for people, not worse. Based off the quote it seemed like a bad idea, but I can also understand just being mad at AI taking over your job. I hope you're right and that this improves outcomes and decreases admin time. Healthcare is so important and is in a disastrous state in the US. I just want everyone to be well.
Same! I think we just have to look at every proposal and every change and go from there.
The healthcare system is terrible and there's so much chaos and dysfunction unfortunately. I find the need of these UM nurses and this specific nursing very bittersweet honestly. We get paid well and job security but our jobs came from so many people needing help to navigate the healthcare system. It can be rewarding getting what the patient needs but it shouldn't be this difficult. There are also times we're limited or restricted by the system... And we just work with what we can do. Its an interesting position to be in.
