    Doctor’s tend to bury their mistakes, especially in todays reality of Obamacare with poor care, untrained staff and overload of patients.

      yeah agent! you tell em! boooo obamacare!

      who cares that people are dying and some doctors try to cover it up?

      who cares that the government has been trying to make things more transparent?

      why bother reading the article and realizing the stories all preceded obama, let alone obamacare?

      why bother talking about what could be done to make the situation better when you can just rail against obamacare which has nothing to do with this article?

        Waa, waa, waa Confused. Can’t stand it if your fabled Obamacare is a total disaster? Nothing can be the fault of Obama for the past 7 1/2 years, can it.

          as rosenblatt once put it to you, i think obamacare has been a super-duper failure. now explain how the cases from 1999-2001 cited in the article were because of obamacare.

        Agent suffers from Obama Derangement Syndrome. It infects his every thought.

          Sally Ann, what country have you been living in the past nearly 8 years? Did all this just sail over your head because you haven’t personally been affected yet? Never mind, your savior won’t be around much longer.

            Keep posting irrelevant crap and it will keep happening.

            You never did answer Confused’s questions. Maybe if you tried answering people’s questions without making irrelevant statements, your posts would not be down voted so many times. Just a thought.

            But, since you are a Conservative Republican, you would rather blame someone else than find a solution.

    Dufus Ron, had the country not voted for your hero twice, we wouldn’t have the problem, would we?

      Agent,

      Are you referring to the problem that existed prior to President Obama being elected? Nobody can KNOW for sure. The problem may be even worse.

      THAT is how you answer someone’s questions. Try it sometime.

      If the country had not voted for you hero twice, 9/11 would not have happened, we would not have lost nearly 7,000 brave servicemen/women, borrowed trillions of dollars to pay for the wars, and created ISIS. Go ahead and tell me which is worse.

      please explain how the problem cases from 1999-2001 cited in the article would not have happened if it wasn’t for obamacare, which hadn’t existed at the time those problems happened.

    I remember when our hospital had a patient death from a heart bypass case. It was not conclusive if the patient contracted the infection during the heart bypass case; however, when I heard of this 6 months later, I went to the heart room and tested surfaces for cleanliness and found the heart and lung machine, anesthesia machine, defibrillator, IV pole and ECG leadwires dirty with high ATP count. I found the room filled with bacteria. Insurance companies should hire me to go into hospitals and validate these facilities because I will turn things over and show why hospitals just don’t get it. There are too many issues to be discovered and uncovered. I can expose these issues in order to save lives and a lot of insurance money going out.

    I have a hospital that has treated me before with a drug and then in October of this year did not give the drug and I had 3 more seizures while in their ER department. I hit my head and neck when I slid out of a wheelchair with no leg rests because I was still seizing. The Risk Manager has decided my case should go to their legal department. They don’t know I used to pay medical claims so they cannot get away with the medical jargon. I just want the hospital to admit they should have given the drug and pay a small amount for them, not for me, to let them know this should not be done again. I am going to ask to have the doctor to let me have the medication on hand at home so this doesn’t happen again.
