Opps.... The Judge looked at the facts and made his ruling.  Stop your rantings and get to know the facts.  HCCA is staying and the Board has to start playing nice. Make them end their vendetta against HCCA and grow up, only then will things get better..... or not.  
Either way, you lemmings are going to pay up or lose your hospital.</description>

Wandering...yu called Germany out correctly. Read his resume 0n line.
He will find another job at some down and out low life hospital with no high demands and the smoking mirrors will start. Notice he only does interim jobs for couple years and moves on . He will leave Tulare by thanksgiving. 
I have worked at Tulare and loved yu all. Take care and sad to hear of your bad times.

What a joke, if HCCA was floating the hospital for a year why was that never presented to the board, the community or in the financials? There absolutely was still remaining bond money when they came on board and they collected money from the foundation which was at least another million.  There has not been an audit of the bond money. HCCA holding doctors accountable what a farce. They played politics with the medical staff and they lost. What they did to the medical staff was just a final straw in their bullying antics and then they blame the doctors for not using the place, maybe if you were respectful to one of your customers they might still admit there. 

A second bond was a way to further pad Benny&#039;s checkbook. Why there was no defined amount needed for completion of the Tower just some random elevated number with no explanation. 

On top of all that the quality measures plummeted under Benzeevi and all he did was attempt to blame others for his inability to manage a hospital. He didn&#039;t pay bills since he started and bragged that he created wonderful financial performance. Anyone can do that when you don&#039;t pay your bills. Nor did he keep up the facility, we didn&#039;t forget how deplorable the landscaping was being maintained.

Go whine elsewhere about what we the community are going to be responsible for. There is a very good chance a Judge will see what a ludricrious contract this really is and may just see the conflict that Kumar had in putting it in place for his pal Benny. 

What we won&#039;t be on the hook for any longer is inept leadership.</description>

The only thing that HCCA is good at is hiring expensive lawyers and threatening and suing the citizens of Tulare.
HCCA failed to finish the tower.
HCCA fialed to recruit new doctors.
HCCA failed to retain the doctors that were already there.
HCCA failed to staff the OR adequately causing innocent patients to die.
HCCA failed to be honest with the citizens of Tulare, initially portraying itself as the savior of the hospital, while in reality it was not even paying the water bill.
Maybe the judge will honor the contract.   We are after all a civilized country, governed by law.   However,  one thing is for certain,  the citizens of Tulare view you, Mr Benzeevi, and your buddies Kumar/Ostrom/Gemrany as nothing but scum bag criminals.</description>

Tony don&#039;t you get it? HCCA has been floating the hospital for over a year. HCCA has been paying but now that the Bond was rejected and loans denied by the current, obstinate board, HCCA refuses to float the hospital any longer.  Now it&#039;s on the current board to come up with the funds so either sell assets, get a Bond, or get a loan.  Everything HCCA tried to do already.  Either that or close the Hospital.  See, it&#039;s easy.</description>

Yes grandma we believe it because it&#039;s the truth. All you people do is rant and rave about things you know nothing about. Most of the people making these comments are so ignorant about the facts it&#039;s shocking.  You spin yourselves into a frenzy and spout nonsense which is why going to Bankruptcy court is a good thing. Maybe the judge will shut most of you lemmings up.</description>

		<description>When the Judge looks at the facts this bankruptcy and the attempted breach of contract will be thrown out. 
It&#039;s amazing how uninformed the general population is about this issue. #1) The original bond money was spent before HCCA took over. #2) There have been two independent audits done since HCCA took over which showed where the money went. #3) HCCA has been floating the hospital for a year and that money will have to be paid back. #4) Your local Doctors have caused this by sending their patients to other hospitals to spite HCCA, after HCCA took over. Why? Because HCCA tried to make them accountable.  The loss of revenue was directly caused by YOUR local Doctors because they didn&#039;t want to be held accountable. #5) HCCA tried to get the tower finished by a 2nd Bond. This 2nd bond was ALWAYS going to be needed, it even states that in the 1st Bond measure that was passed. #6) The current board is not doing the local community any favors. To them, this is a vendetta against HCCA and they are going to put the community on the hook for a lot of money just to spite HCCA.

Good luck people.  The judge is going to have a hard time justifying this Bankruptcy when you have over 220 Million in assets and a valid contract with HCCA. Spare me your rants.... You&#039;ll just look like the fools you are.</description>
