"The
natural train of logic that follows from that is that then
anybody that's admitted around age 65 or older that's showing any signs
of sickness should be denied treatment," Pechacek said. "That's the
cheapest thing to do."

Read the story at: http://www.mjbarkl.com/angel.htm  The
KaiserPapers is
an advocacy site opposed to several medical and business practices
of Kaiser Permanente.
The
Kaiser Papers offers personal accounts, allegations, news, links and
suggestions
for people to obtain information and
assistance when
they are
navigating
the health care
system.
Even though there are
many written laws protecting the patients, the
purchasers and
users of health care
with
actual punishments attached to them for
the
offenders; if the laws are never enforced they are not really laws at
all.So while what Kaiser does may be illegal by the books it isn't going to do you much good at all because no one is enforcing the law. If you want to help stop Kaiser and the Permanente from harming the American Public forward us proof of their actions.The court system apparently needs more hard copy proof in addition to more witnesses, more confessions from doctors and nurses and more hard copy patient documentation. Send us internal Kaiser documents. Send us Kaiser memos. Send us staff bonus information and staff contract information. We will put it in the right hands. You are guaranteed anonymity in this matter. The important thing is to get the information out to save some lives. Help us find out which level of management is responsible for the crimes committed on the American Public. Then the courts will be able to stop them cold.

If you truly wish to "THRIVE" then take the time to educate yourself and learn about the Kaiser and Permanente companies that are taking your money. Educate yourself on what they are doing to you. Politely and persistently ask questions if you do not understand what they are telling you or if something doesn't make sense. Hard earned money is being paid to this company to provide medical care for you. You have the right to ask questions or to simply tell them not to touch you until they start providing truthful intelligent answers. You have the right to be truthfully informed about your own health care. Because someone is wearing a white coat it doesn't necessarily mean that they are a doctor or that they know what they are talking about. Ask questions, know the identity of the person overseeing your care or who is touching you - doing anything to you. Make sure you get their license number if they have one as well. Do not blindly trust. Do not accept pats on the head or blithe statements that you wouldn't or couldn't understand what they are doing. Do not believe nonsensical statements. It is your body and you don't get many chances in this lifetime to take care of it properly or to fix serious problems that come up. Make sure the care you receive is the right care for you The doctors should be pleased if you follow this information. You will be a better patient if you know what is going on, if you understand what and why something is happening or needs to be done. You stand a better chance if you can believe what you are told, trust that they truly know what they are talking about and are doing their best. Educate yourself about your medical condition, the treatments available in and outside the system and how the medical system actually works. You have the right to ask questions or to simply tell them not to touch you until they start providing truthful intelligent answers. You have the right to be truthfully informed about your own health care.
Are you experiencing barriers to care? The following are examples of barriers to care. - “Your doctor is on vacation” - “The manager is in a meeting” - “We’ll get back to you in a few days” - “There are no available appointments” - “We’re too busy” - “Have you spoken to someone in member services?” - “I’m a physician, I have nothing to do with administrative matters” - Do you believe you are receiving quality health care? If you are interested in joining with other Kaiser patients to improve the quality of medical care and services at Kaiser Permanente, join by contacting any of the people listed at: Attention Kaiser Permanente Patients… Are you dissatisfied or
satisfied with your current health care provider?
(e.g., doctor, nurse, psychologist)
Many Kaiser providers are nice. Nice does not mean that your provider is doing what is best for you. Many patients have a false sense of security because they like their provider. Those who are not satisfied with their care are usually punted through the system. Both groups are equally at risk.
