For every "for-profit medical horror story" that you post, I can post two from a single "not for profit" hospital ...


I think you're probably right on this; for-profit facilities simply have too much at stake to be letting crap like this happen. Government run facilities have little to lose.

If this happened at a for-profit hospital, they'd be out of business. If it happens at the VA? It is a mere screwup.
