Friday Feb. 13, 2009 -- I go to Kaiser over lunch to get my blood drawn and my chest x-ray taken. I tell the check-in tech why I’m there and how I need the results back to UCSF in a couple days. He says the submitted request is for normal workup timing and that would never meet the timing I need. He changes the timing request to ‘stat’ and offers to do the blood draw himself right then. Thank you.
