Wellness Wednesday: Doctor Referrals
SUMMARY: Dr. Quinn clarifies the process of doctor referrals, addressing common misconceptions that these are driven by financial kickbacks. He explains a case where he referred three siblings to the same cardiologist due to their family history of congenital heart conditions—emphasizing that such referrals are based on expertise and care, not financial gain. He also mentions the importance of building professional relationships through experience, preferring specialists with proven track records. Dr. Quinn highlights Stark anti-kickback laws, which strictly prohibit financial incentives for referrals, noting that violations can result in severe penalties, including license loss and jail time.

SUMMARY: Happy Friday! We're looking at our current rainfall status for July. June ended dry with a 2-inch deficit, and early July is nearly an inch behind, with only 0.31 inches of rain in Meridian today. Notably, other areas received more. Portions of Noxubee and Clarke Counties are abnormally dry, but recent rain has been beneficial. More rain is expected south of I-20 tonight and over the weekend, with showers likely into Saturday and Sunday. Tropical Storm Barry, likely to strengthen, could bring additional moisture to Mississippi early next week. Overall, expect warm, muggy weather with scattered showers and thunderstorms.
