That Telegraph story hit hard.
A patient got prescribed cannabis, things went south fast, and he took his own life. Coroner called it a contributing factor. But dig deeper: sloppy medical records turned a prescription into a nightmare.
I'm not here to debate cannabis. This is about the mess of paper trails in healthcare that screw patients over. Illicit sources? Yeah, but what if clearer billing and records prevented confusion?
Why Medical Bills Are Silent Killers
- Scanned PDFs full of blurry charges and codes doctors barely explain.
- Patients mix up dates, meds, CPT codes - leading to double-dosing or wrong combos.
- No quick way to audit your own history without days of manual entry.
In this case, poor tracking might've amplified risks. Imagine converting that chaos into something scannable.
