Is OCOD right for what just happened?

A quick gut-check so you can act with confidence.

✓

Come see Dr. Rahman if you have:

  • •A suspected fracture, sprain, or dislocation
  • •A sports or work injury (bone, joint, ligament)
  • •Sudden joint, back, or shoulder pain
  • •An injury that needs an x-ray, cast, or splint
  • •Hand, wrist, knee, or ankle injury
!

Go to the ER (or call 911) if:

  • •Bone is visible or breaking through skin
  • •Heavy bleeding that won't stop
  • •Head, neck, or spinal injury
  • •Chest pain, trouble breathing, or loss of consciousness
  • •Numbness or no pulse below the injury

For ortho injuries, the ER is the slow, expensive option.

Over 60% of ER orthopedic visits end in a referral to a specialist anyway. You can skip that step.

Costs: ER avg from the Health Care Cost Institute. Urgent care is billed à la carte — the visit itself averages $250 out of pocket per JAMA Network Open (2022), and once imaging, splinting, and a specialist referral are added a comparable ortho workup commonly runs ~$750 or higher. Out-of-pocket costs vary by plan and visit.

One visit. All-in.

No surprise bills. No facility fees. You're only charged if Dr. Rahman actually sees you. HSA & FSA accepted.
