What are the chances that the recent kick to the wallet that Villages Health has taken as a result of their $360 million "billing discrepancy" is or will be impacting the quality of their ER service? If they had to borrow to make payroll, it stands to reason that they will be squeezing every penny, and that personnel/services may indeed be on the chopping block.
That possibility alone would be enough motivation, should it ever be needed, for my wife and I to avoid the Villages Hospital ER unless there were absolutely no other choice.
