    In my opinion, in this case Cedars-Sinai Medical center wins. Because the installation of the pace maker was a service provided by the medical center. The pacemaker was manufactured by American Technology Inc, hence this company should be held liable for any defect in its product. Cedars-Sinai Medical Center was not involved in either manufacturing or selling or distributing or testing of the pacemaker. So it is not liable for any injury caused to Frances Hector.…

By setting “rack rates” – an extremely expensive set rate for medical procedures – as the ‘standard fare’ for all patients, while simultaneously granting clear and enormous discounts for those insured through third-party entities, the not-for-profit hospitals unconscionably…

Today’s presentation we will take a deeper look at the soft returns when implementing an electronic health record (EHR) system. It is important to remember that indirect savings are usually applied to processes not easily measured and, thus, quantifying savings can be difficult to see at first. We will look at the three steps in documenting soft returns: (1) identifying a process improvement opportunity, which is improved time/efficiency; (2) create a formula to calculate the benefits; (3) and determine the costs of the process and the net benefits. In order to determine the return benefits from EHR implementation, it is necessary to establish baseline metrics that can be used as a guideline for measuring success after the implementation.…
