Followup: Stay away from OHSU

Front page of today's Oregonian reaffirms by advice to avoid surgery at OHSU at all costs. If one of their surgeons or "agents" botches the operation, their liability is capped at $200,000. The mother of the boy featured in the story sums it up perfectly:

If I had known about this, I never would have trusted OHSU with my son.

Peter Demand-a-Tram Kohler's response:

We provide services to lots of folks, and we have a of of missions that are important to the public. Where do we want to spend the dollars? For the greater good, or for a few individuals who would benefit substantially?

Ouch, Peter.
