Criticism of such morbidity and mortality numbers has basically been ignored and over-ridden, even when some of the events are reviewed by the doctor involved and shown to be erroneous, insurance companies,and CMS persist in public release of this data. try this about never events. http://ohiosurgery.blogspot.com/2008/08/diane-suchetkas-continuing-anti-doctor.html
