With some gall, a VP of Cooper University Hospital in Camden has the nerve to write a letter chiding the editors of the Courier News on the issue of elective angioplasties. The letter completely sidesteps that what New Jersey hospitals are participating in is a national study being conducted by Johns Hopkins University.
Also unmentioned, but lurking in the background in my memory, are the sharp elbows that Cooper brings to playing the funding game.
Ask around among hospital folks and you'll find a consensus: Cooper would strangle any hospital if it got them a few more bucks.
The high road, this is not.
Read the letter here: "Angioplasties best done in high-volume facilities".
