Friday, October 01, 2004The Sabo case has revived the issue of the scope of General Hospital's neurological services over the past few months due, at least in part, to a conflict between Dr. William Host, chief executive officer of the Wyoming Valley Health Care System, which owns General Hospital, and Dr. David Sedor, a neurosurgeon at General Hospital for many years. A clash between Host and Sedor resulted in Sedor being terminated from the hospital's medical staff. His efforts to gain readmission have been unsuccessful. Following that event, General Hospital began to use neurology services from physicians associated with the Hershey Medical Center. General and Hershey have forged a cooperative agreement. Hershey is 90 to 120 minutes away from the Wyoming Valley area. It's also an area that's been hard-hit by the medical malpractice crisis, although in this case that appears not to have played much of a role in the access issue. posted by Sydney on 10/01/2004 08:22:00 AM 0 comments 0 Comments: |
