Simple
This means the hospital has squandered the budget with lavish dinners and expensive trips for the top administrators, and has no money left for basic needs like midazolam, fentanyl, morphine, and hydromorphone.
“...supplies are CRITICALLY short & the hospital is struggling to maintain supplies”.
should read....
“BUDGET MONEY is CRITICALLY short & the hospital is struggling to maintain supplies”.
Yeah its the fault of those rich one percenters
I seriously doubt that.
Medicine during hospital visits is not “free as part of the surgical package”.
Hospital markups on drugs are in the thousands of percents.
I saw a story recently about a drug dose that should have cost pennies being billed in excess of $400.
