Reverse cConsent for Treatment

by SteveBl

CONSENT FOR TREATMENT

from http://peds.8m.com/humor/ (don't worry it's mine.. no copyright infringements)




Anytime you receive treatment from a Health Care Provider, you will be asked to sign a consent for treatment.
This document basically gives the provider permission to kill you and charge you an arm and a leg for it.
Below is a sample consent you can give to your provider to sign.


I____________________________________consent to treat________________________________

I understand that, even though I may be totally incompetent to perform the procedure, I am doing so because ______________________________________insurance company is trying to save a buck.


I also understand that I am to use the cheapest equipment possible; including sterile gloves which rip when I put them on. I will also reuse any disposable sterile items by placing them back into the package.

I also understand that if I am sued, I'll immediately blame my high fees on increasing malpractice costs.

Under oath, I guarantee that I could care less for human dignity and if _____________________ dies, I will get over it and go on with my business of providing cheap care.


Signed___________________________________

Witnessed___________________________________
