I get an e-prescription today for one of our patients who we haven't seen in a while. Try filling it, I get back a response from the insurance that this patient isn't eligible; his insurance lapsed.
I call the patient's house to find out what his current insurance is.
Patient's family informs us that he passed away two years ago.
Um, Doc. I don't think this patient needs that heart medicine any more, unless you want me to go out to the cemetery and drop the tablets into the grave.
(Technician wants to know which doctor dug him up and examined him.)
