We do not need to change this board any less than we need to have access to our bank account.

In reply to Truth16.

Southern Inyo Hospital was purchasing medications through Tulare as all vendors for Southern Inyo Hospital were on credit hold. We purchased a lot of medications through Tulare as we had to be up to standards to open our doors! You may want to look into where those medications eventually ended up. Tulare has been providing Southern Inyo Hospital with several things to keep this hospital running. Southern Inyo Hospital can’t afford to order supplies let alone medications.

Are they going to pay the remaining $29k balance to Cardinal pharmaceuticals or let it ride to show “profit” for their upcoming fed loans?

I just saw a local team raised $700,000 for merchandise. $800,000 to pay to keep patients safe seems comparatively a no brainer, unless those charges are outliers compared to other competitors such as OmniCell. By the way, how much does the CEO make? Is the Board paid and how much.

WHY HAVE WE NOT HEARD ANY REBUTTAL OR EXPLANATION FROM THE PIRATES OF TULARE ON MISAPPROPRIATION OF $800,000 ISSUE?

Kumar is a TOXIC ASSET now.

Benny is in deep dodo because of Kumar.

Kumar has issues with every other doctor. Kumar has pissed off all of them to the point that they took the drastic action of taking their business elsewhere.
This caused huge loss of income for the hospital – which – is hurting Benny’s pocket.

Benny should discard Kumar. Kumar is about to become history anyway. They need only 1000 signatures to recall Kumar. Drs Kamboj, Patel, Kamboj Jr & Betre can get this many patients to sign the petition just from their own practice. There are plenty of people who are willing to go door to door and get signatures for 20-30$ per sign for their time.

I do not see how anyone can benefit from being seen as Kumar’s friend.

Thank you for the easy to understand report.

Why so much dishonesty? What is really being hidden? Why did the purchase of drugs begin to triple in December when it doesn’t appear the number of patients grew? Was this gearing up for Southern
Inyo to come on board with their nursing home?

How many other vendors are not being and for what amounts?

It is time for the board to come clean.

This proves that hospital is not profitable and in fact is having to borrow money to stay open.

At the same time, hospital is paying 4 MILLION dollars every year just to the 3 people on the top – Benny, Alan & Samantha.

This cannot go on for very long. When these people leave, I bet they will have hospital in so much debt that it will have to declare bankruptcy.
