Ongoing crisis?

Things are ominously quite over at our county hospital and the children’s hospital.

It was some time ago that we learned that the financial auditors for the children’s hospital told us that it was probably not a viable ongoing concerning with the financial arrangements as they are now.

We have been told that the children’s hospital owes the county hospital more than $60 million dollars.

The county hospital had to get permission to borrow money from next year’s paycheck (property tax income) to finish 2014.

The lack of transparency about the situation is troublesome.  I fear that we will eventually be presented with another “fait accompli” along with another bill.

If the situation is as dire as we have been told these guys need to take action to get the situation straightened out.

We deserve better

    We can’t talk about this, don’t you understand that it is a “personnel matter?”

    This has Susie Byrd’s slimy hands all over it. That’s probably why Veronica placed her there (well besides helping her find money to pay I’ve league tuition). Back room deliberations and lack of transparency are the El Paso progressive MO.
