"Provider"

There isn't any other profession in the world that constantly takes it without putting up a fight like us doctors do..it's just getting absurd..now it's politically incorrect to call yourself a doctor..wtf

And dont be silly, this issue isnt just limited to one EMR..the word "provider" is becoming rampant in the entire hospital culture on a national level..you will start having to introduce yourself as a provider to your patients

This would be like lawyers and paralegals jointly calling themselves legal providers..or dentist lumping themselves with dental hygienists to be called dental providers..would never happen..you think any other profession would allow that..enough is enough

Do NOT allow yourself to be called a provider..if any of your staff label you as a provider or introduce you to a patient as a provider..correct it immediately..you're a doctor not a provider..we should not be lumped together with allied health and midlevels
