Seems less risky to endow a Medical School (Weill) or a department (Jules Stein Eye Intitute)

I see that “hospital officials” have determined that part of the overcrowding problem is children “falling off government-funded health insurance programs.” Suspiciously topical, no?

There isn’t the slightest possibility that, in three months, they have gathered enough data (much less done a decent analysis) to know this. My guess is that the “hospital officials” who said that are the same geniuses who grossly underestimated their potential volume.

What exactly is wrong with a hospital being overcrowded? Open a new hospital. That’s business.
