It seems to me always that descicable behavior from non-profits is always ethically worse (not to mention financially perverse as it pertains to mission).

We have heartily criticized all kinds of non-profit organizations, government agencies, etc. In fact, most of the wording of the post above refers to health care organizations, not for-profit corporations per se.Roy M.

They<br />just change their names, start over, and do it all over again. (Sometimes they don't even bother to change their names.)<br /><br />What worries me are reports that for-profit hospitals will be taking over more and more small non-profitsmaggiemaharhttp://www.healthbeatblog.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9551150.post-5903345256989898332012-05-01T02:17:05.658-04:002012-05-01T02:17:05.658-04:00Sorry for your loss Al.

His death may not have been owing to the care, but his misery, untreated pain (despite prescriptions from the attending doctors), and horrible treatment by some of the hospital staff made his last two weeks a horror and everything all of us APeticolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05446263465738752743noreply@blogger.com
