Raptor- I agree with your direction. I suspect that not all the bad news is out wrt the commercial business and that, IMHO, 1998 will be a loss vs the concensus 40cents. At the same time they have the premier franchise in the tri-state area and there is a significant risk in trying to short at this level. I don't see how any potential return can justify the risk--calculate a reasonable value for the franchise on a per share basis.
I am too familiar with the health industry pricing cycle to think that this will be a "quick" turn around (in addition to the system problems)- but I am convinced that it will turn around- speed will depend how aggressively management moves on the issues.
