You should ask the old MEC about purposefully not bringing patients to the hospital. Tons of staff being sent home EVERYDAY without pay, because those doctors were taking down the hospital. That&#039;s the truth. Disgusting behavior. You talk of oath and honor. It stopped being about patients and about the power. Disgraceful.</description>

		<description>Doreen, your hospital has been Benzeevied with the help of Kumar and there may be no way out for you until the contract expired.</description>

I knew that pharmacist personally. It is wrong that after 40 years of good service, they couldn&#039;t give them the respect and dignity to retire on his own terms.</description>

		<description>Doreen, I am so sorry to hear of this happening in your very small community. I would suggest citizens start requesting records. You guys need to try and get HCCA out, your board needs to step up. HCCA did tell the board they were letting 29 employees go. 1 had run our large lad for over 25 yrs, 1 was pharmacist with 40 yrs. Please follow the Facebook page citizens for accountability, they are very helpful if you contact them.</description>

		<description>Bell&#039;s daughter (or d-in-l) was given a job at Hillman clinic.
Do we know was it a competitive offer?
How much is being channeled through her?</description>

		<description>Finally, we found the evidence of quid-pro-quo type of corruption. 

Kumar gave Benny 3 million a year here. Benny gives him some decent cut through another corp of his in form of consultancy fee, directorship fee etc.

I bet if you dig deeper, you will find evidence for payment coming to Bell family too.</description>

Dorene, we are saddened to hear this. But we are not surprised to know that these are the tactics of HCCA. Bleeding a town the size of Tulare is wrong, but bleeding a town the size of Lone Pine is immoral. We pray for your town and your situation.</description>
