Nauseation with wallet biopsy

A patient had no complaints of 'nauseation' on Thursday, September 22, 2011 following an 8:41 am two motor vehicle accident.  Too bad the medical linguist didn't remember the criteria for use of a trauma center or relate it was a 50 mph head on collision with extrication.  After a local wallet biopsy, the patient was found to have a broken neck and got to pay for a helicopter flight.
