Shingles



HERE'S THE REASON....... 

 WHY OUR HEALTH CARE COSTS ARE SO HIGH!!!


Bubba had shingles.


Those of us who spend much time in a doctor's

office should appreciate this! Doesn't it seem

more and more that physicians are running their

practices like an assembly line? 
Here's what

happened to Bubba:




Bubba walked into a doctor's office and the


receptionist asked him what he had. Bubba said:


'Shingles.' So she wrote down his name, address,


medical insurance number and told him to have a


seat.





Fifteen minutes later a nurse's aide came out and


asked Bubba what he had...
Bubba said,


'Shingles.' So she wrote down his height, weight,


a complete medical history and told Bubba to wait


in the examining room.





A half hour later a nurse came in and asked


Bubba what he had. Bubba said, 'Shingles..' So


the nurse gave Bubba a blood test, a blood


pressure test, an electrocardiogram, and told


Bubba to take off all his clothes and wait for the


doctor.

An hour later the doctor came in and found


Bubba sitting patiently in the nude and asked


Bubba what he had.

Bubba said, 'Shingles.' The doctor asked,


'Where?'
Bubba said, 'Outside on the truck.


Where do you want me to unload 'em??'
