AGH, Berlin Work Together To Settle Problematic Suit
After several months of dialogue, Atlantic General Hospital settled a potentially problematic lawsuit over stormwater fees with the town of Berlin last month.
The suit, filed in October 2013, alleged the town unfairly charged AGH more than $9,000 in annual fees. The hospital, which operates as a nonprofit, manages its stormwater onsite and does not believe it causes or contributes to any stormwater problems in Berlin.
Both sides settled out of court on July 14. Berlin Mayor Gee Williams said there were two steps to the settlement.
2 things. AGH is a good hospital, far better at what they do than PRMC. And Mike Franklin is running it into the ground. He places appearances and fund raising ahead of patient care. It's on a downward slide.
My wife received excellent care at AGH when she had knee replacement surgery. An intercom was linked to her bed so she could talk directly to the nursing staff. They also fought with insurance company to get her into rehab afterwards. The staff and surgeons are excellent.
Nice deal. I'll pay 3k stormwater fees if you pay me 10k in "Donations".
ReplyDeleteNice.
Ain't Going Home. Michael is running this place into the ground.
