		<description>[&#8230;] “The District had legitimate reasons for funding the plaintiffs’ attorney’s fees in the Betre case, and it should be patently obvious that there was no misuse or waste of “public funds.” The District’s position has been set forth in court pleadings, and will be reiterated in the trial of the matter,&#8221; a statement from the hospital in February 2017 read.

		<description>Ironic,  the team  against HCCA is dying to take control......This is a joke!!
I know a lot of people coming from Visalia to be treated at TRMC including my family and Dr Kumar is the best!
TRMC is a great Hospital either you like it or not.....That is my opinion if you think different than go some place else!!
HCCA is doing an awesome job!

		<description>Let&#039;s Talk-please do not write one more time that HCCA was the only one to step in and help the hospital.  Learn the facts.  There were 3-4 other hospitals with much more experience and success rate than HCCA.  They were willing to step in and bail the hospital out of the mess Shawn Boluki made.</description>

		<description>We should file a complaint with state attorney general office and ask them to do a financial audit. 

Last I checked it is still a public hospital supported by tax dollars.</description>

		<description>Truth16, let&#039;s not forget borrowing money to pay debts. using our district as a bank to loan money to the real bankrupt district, so they can pay their management fees and overpaid doctors to be on call.  Someone might want to do some digging to see if the secret loan, is the only thing our district is loaning Lone Pine.</description>

		<description>Is that the excuse for letting the Director of the lab go? Was someone able to fill her stellar performance at running the department?

Hcca has been in place for 4 years and Benzeevi at the hospital for longer than that. This near brankruptcy story is getting old. After 4 years of performance and for $3 million + a year is this best thing we will continue to hear about him? No more monthly financials, reporting data severely limited, auditors being switched, cash flow drop, volume drop. In the real world with performance like this he should be fired but that&#039;s right not possible to do since the contract has the District in shackles.</description>

		<description>Truth16-  loss of staff happens and just because someone has long term expierence dose not nessisaely mean they are smarter or more educated then someone of lesser years.  

Next, The informational booklet stated staff received a raise. This alone is a positive,  considering TRMC was near bankruptcy and I&#039;m sure the last 
thing on their mind was the staff. 

Truth16 are these Negarive or Positive things done by this company HCCA?  I&#039;n my opinion Positive.</description>

		<description>Under HCCA we have seen lies and threats of hospital closure, lay-offs of long-term experienced staff, a continued decline in volume, losses of employee benefits, crazy move against your most important internal customer, the medical staff and lawsuits that could have been avoided. Let&#039;s not forget deceit of Hospital business. 

All this for the cost of $3 million+ a year, it is very hard to be thankful for that devastation.</description>
