When a person is shot, rectal exams are often part of the initial trauma assessment. ๐
While it may seem unrelated, this exam is a critical diagnostic tool. ๐ฉบ
It helps doctors check for spinal cord injuries, internal bleeding, or nerve damage, which can occur even if the bullet wound appears superficial. ๐ฉน
The exam also assesses for rectal tone and blood, which are key indicators of serious trauma. ๐
After being stabilized by EMS (Emergency Medical Services), victims are transported to the hospital, but ambulance rides are notoriously expensive. ๐ฐ
On average, an EMS transport can range from $1,000 to $2,500 or more, depending on location and services provided. ๐ณ
Without comprehensive health insurance, these costs, combined with emergency care expenses, can be financially devastating. ๐โโ๏ธ
Strong healthcare coverage is essential for protecting against the unpredictable costs of medical emergencies. ๐ก๏ธ
