Cognitive Dissonance and the Blowback Economy

Page 81

curtain, I made about 300,000 a year (as an analyst and manager for Kaiser Permanente–a rather large health care provider and, sadly, a very poor one, as well) and my 300,000 a year salary and my fancy job and title working FOR a hospital did nothing to help me because the hospital I designed business processes and testing methodologies for allowed my child to die.

They were so cost-conscious that they did not ―notice‖ a medical crisis and so now we have no daughter. There are other problems I have experienced with health care as well. One more example (although nothing compared to the loss of our child): I have an arthritic badly damaged shoulder, but the doctors did nothing to help me with that other than confirm that, yes, my shoulder is damaged.

Thanks for the insight. No treatment, no medication, no therapy, nothing. I should ―exercise it‖ and ―maybe‖ it will improve. 81
