Whistleblower

Last time I went to the doctor, they were having trouble with the new computer system. This was kind of shocking to me, because my impression of Kaiser Permanente has been that, whatever other flaws, their system for making my life easier in terms of dealing with records and billing is really good. But that day things were breaking down.

So I took notice when I ran across this: Justen Deal wrote an interesting memo about how the CEO of Kaiser Permanente was funnelling a lot of money to a cohort in the guise of building a new information system for them.

Of course Justen was fired. Wall Street Journal follows up.
