What is...
Cardiac arrhythmia ... non-surgical care ?
A group of conditions in which the muscle contraction of the heart is irregular. Arrhythmias may be treated electrically. "Cardioversion" is the application of electrical current across the chest wall to the heart and it is used for treatment of supraventricular or pulsed ventricular tachycardia. "Defibrillation" differs in that it is used for ventricular fibrillation and pulse-less ventricular tachycardia, and more electricity is delivered with defibrillation than with cardioversion. In cardioversion, the recipient is either sedated or lightly anesthetized for the procedure. In defibrillation, the recipient has lost consciousness so there is no need for sedation.

Choose a Health Insurance Plan that covers your Doctor
This one sounds so obvious and yet most people miss it. If you are looking to buy health insurance, you fall into one of two situations:
Case 1: You do not have a family doctor or specialist. Alternatively, even if you have one, you are not particularly attached to seeing that doctor. If this is true, then you can safely ignore the rest of this post.
Case 2: You do have a family doctor and would very much like to continue seeing that doctor. If you fall into this category, then remember this – not all doctors accept every plan. If you buy a health insurance plan and then find out later that it does not cover your doctor, you could lose hundreds of dollars in out-of-network costs each year.
So, if you do have a family doctor and would like to keep him or her – please do ask your health insurance counselor to choose a plan that covers that doctor!
