00:00:00.030 --> 00:00:04.050
<v 0>We stay in as much as possible. We don't socialize in groups.</v>

2
00:00:04.230 --> 00:00:09.130
I've been wiping down surfaces. And when I get the mail, for example, I take it,

3
00:00:09.200 --> 00:00:12.230
I spray it with a bleach solution, leave it in the garage overnight,

4
00:00:12.380 --> 00:00:15.890
the same way with the newspaper. We do go to the grocery store,

5
00:00:15.920 --> 00:00:19.550
but I'm very careful there too. By taking a hand sanitizer,

6
00:00:19.790 --> 00:00:21.980
I actually use a little plastic gloves.

7
00:00:22.130 --> 00:00:26.120
And of course the mask for my last appointment was actually face-to-face.

8
00:00:26.270 --> 00:00:28.550
It was my annual Medicare physical.

9
00:00:28.760 --> 00:00:33.130
I wanted to make that one on in person previously, the,

10
00:00:33.130 --> 00:00:36.320
the endocrinology stuff, which is the diabetes stuff,

11
00:00:36.680 --> 00:00:40.730
is what seemed to fit more to me, a viable teleconference thing,

12
00:00:41.090 --> 00:00:44.480
because usually I go in and see the endocrinologist. I take my meter in,

13
00:00:44.840 --> 00:00:48.710
they read the meter and they looked the last couple of weeks or months of,

14
00:00:48.710 --> 00:00:51.770
of things of readings, blood, glucose readings,

15
00:00:52.010 --> 00:00:56.030
and decide whether or not something should be done or adjustments to

16
00:00:56.040 --> 00:01:01.010
medications. Back in April. Uh, I had a, uh, follow up, uh,

17
00:01:01.070 --> 00:01:02.870
with a doctor and, uh,

18
00:01:02.900 --> 00:01:07.850
I had gone to the blood meter people and gotten some software and a little

19
00:01:07.850 --> 00:01:12.140
bit of hardware that will read my blood glucose meter

20
00:01:12.620 --> 00:01:17.030
history, put it up to a file and I don't have to go in and give him the meter.

21
00:01:17.090 --> 00:01:17.990
I can give them that.

22
00:01:18.020 --> 00:01:21.230
Then they can access the readings and look at them while we're doing the

23
00:01:21.230 --> 00:01:23.690
face-to-face. He said, I think it has its place.

24
00:01:23.930 --> 00:01:28.730
I even can generate a report through the blood meter system

25
00:01:29.180 --> 00:01:34.040
and send it to them on this website here, which is the ICU, um, uh,

26
00:01:34.100 --> 00:01:38.720
health website. So having said that another example was earlier in the year,

27
00:01:38.720 --> 00:01:42.590
I had a skin survey looking for cancerous type things.

28
00:01:42.890 --> 00:01:45.860
That's real how by Medicare once a year. And, uh,

29
00:01:46.220 --> 00:01:49.010
I didn't think I wanted to use a camera for that.

30
00:01:49.010 --> 00:01:50.540
I want to have a guy looking at it.

31
00:01:50.900 --> 00:01:52.700
There are things that are appropriate and they were fine,

32
00:01:53.120 --> 00:01:55.130
but you have to think through how it works.
