There is a good podcast with a similar bit of greed called Dr. Death. Highly recommend if this article interests you.
One common thread is how bad misconduct can be deemed “personal” and hidden from public view with internal hospital panels. In this story it happened at the same hospital - But a Doctor can do a horrible job, even as far as resulting fatalities, be asked to resign, and go join another hospital with no repercussion.
We are quick to blame government healthcare or insurance companies for healthcare issues while leaving this important loophole wide open. When confronted by reporters or investigators, the members of these internal medical boards either remain silent or hide behind the “I’ve been an admin at a prominent hospital with years of medical experience, I know better than you.”
