Give LH and CCF Credit - They Keep Serving Great Whoppers!

[marklingm]

Lakewood Hospital and the Cleveland Clinic keep serving us great whoppers!

From today:

Lakewood Hospital officials said services were reduced because of declining demand, and they said they have made efforts to attract more patients.

The funny thing is that folks like Jen Pae and Jay Foran post this story on the BL facebook page, and then pretend that it's evidence to back their position.

Unfortunately for them, people on the street know what the Clinic is up to.

It is a culture of dishonesty to perpetuate "Non-Profit Greed"

I think they are in denial. When they read that the Hospital is losing patients they see an institution destined to fail even after the valiant efforts of the Cleveland Clinic to save it. They see it as proof there is no need for medical services in Lakewood.

Most people see the truth. The Clinic took a profitable institution with opportunity for growth and looted it.

So...the LHA was trying it's best to attract more patients all the while the CCF, who really controls the destinations of patients, was transferring them elsewhere as much as possible?
Is the LHA so clueless, they had no idea what their tenant was up to? Boy, the PD really takes us for ignorant fools.

In all the council meetings, in all the COW meetings, in all the community forums etc., I've never heard one thread of evidence that backs the LHA story. All I've ever heard from them is how "we did our best under difficult circumstances" line of BS.

LHA as a Board is complete fiction. The LHA repeats the information given to them by CCF. CCF is LHA. LHA is CCF. For example, Tom Gable is a CCF Trustee, an Avon CCF Trustee and LHA Trustee. Nothing more than a sock puppet for CCF's Ankit Chhabra--who was part of India's military intelligence--sort of like our CIA. A master at misinformation and manipulation. Gable in turn controls LHA attorneys so LHA's "Negotiation Position" is identical to CCF's. Which is identical to Summers'. This "deal" has been "baked" for over a year.

LHA does nothing except pass on bogus information. They are FAKE!
