Thank you HCCA.

No answer to your basic statement – who was thrown off the board? Or this is the more alternative facts to deceive the public?

Oh Kim or Kassandra where do you get your facts. Who was thrown off the board?

I have been witness to the constant change of “facts”. Love the one that HCCA was the only legitimate offer. They were so legitimate that they didn’t even exist until after they were selected and they were allowed in as a legitimate option after the RFP closed.

I am afraid you wouldn’t recognize facts that were right in front of you.

It’s clear again that the Citizens for Hospital UNaccountability are continuing with their work of fiction. There were no legitimate offers available that geared toward saving our hospital. HCCA was the only one and most importantly HCCA delivered stellar results. You can keep fantasizing and making false claims. You’re pretty good at it considering that one of your leaders was thrown off the board for participating in approving illegal physician contracts. Your “group” represent no one here except those failed leaders of the past who have failed our hospital and our community. It is YOU who should Go.

Oh Kassandra,

I am not misleading anyone. Just look at the numbers prior to HCCA taking over and then every year thereafter. The numbers have done nothing but decline under their management. Unless of course the reporting isn’t factual.

First pediatric admits make-up very little of TRMC census and it hasn’t for many years. As well as ENT. I am well aware that Dr. Smith continued to do many surgeries at TRMC until the unprecedented move was made to replace the MEC just over a year ago. That further plummeted the census and that move, which was very calculated, was under the direction and leadership of HCCA.

But the continued blame of others for the lack of their managerial expertise is not surprising. A successful hospital must recognize the importance of one of their key internal customers, the physicians, without them success will be hard to achieve. Since December 2012 the lack of respect has been evident, which started out by not recognizing Dr. Patel as the elected Chief of Staff. It wasn’t until you dig deeper in reading Sherrie Bell’s deposition that you discover that Dr. Benzeevi was trying to get elected to the MEC and was unsuccessful. So the board took a stance against the MEC back then over Benzeevi’s sour grapes. Then look closely at the meeting minutes from when HCCA was selected to be the alignment partner, you could see again that your most valuable internal customer was again slighted. Nothing is ringing more true than Dr. Sunlap’s question “is the hospital going to be aligned with an institution that will strip of us our assets?”

Good job on misleading the Citizens. Do yourself a favor get out a pen and paper and write down all the doctors on the Prior MEC and look at who’s not admitting. I bet your list goes like this.

Dr Betre- Don’t Admit
Dr Patel- Don’t admit
Dr Kamboj-Don’t admit
Dr Kamboj-Don’t admit
Dr Smith-Don’t admit
Dr Orth-Don’t admit

The hospital will most certainly close if our community allows people like you to continue spinning false facts and outright lies. If our building does not get completed, our hospital will close. If you don’t understand that, then you’re uneducated.. Thank God that HCCA has managed to find a way to finish that tower in spite of the self destructive bent of some in our community. The fact that our hospital is still open is a testament to HCCA’s amazing abilities.

Citizens for NO Accountability basically Don’t want a Bond Don’t want a Loan And want everyone removed so they can take over and finish off the job of closing our only hospital. Be careful what you wish for people.

If you talk like an insider, sound like an insider, you present yourself as an insider. I think that Di is quite reasonable to “assume” that you ARE! Oh yeah……if Di and the rest of us didn’t read your thoughts you would be “failing” at your assigned task. Wouldn’t want that to happen now would we! lol
