Healthcare Donations

2020-07-14 17:19:11.647457+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

The local hospital, the one where the nurses were begging for PPE two or three days after the COVID-19 restrictions started because buffer inventory of basic protective gear was so lax, just sent around a big glossy flyer begging for cash donations. So given that we know that their administrators have squeezed every last ounce of resilience out of the local healthcare system, I just want to put this here. From 2017:

Patrick Fry, CEO of Sutter Health, earned the most [per patient], at $6.88 per patient day. With more than 923,000 patient days at the system, that translated into a salary of roughly $6.35 million.

Annoying endorsements will be deleted if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave such ridicule in place.
