Mileikowsky, M.D. v. West Hills Hospital (2009) 45 Cal.4th 1259.<br />In specific Smith v. Selma Community Hospital (2008) 164 Cal.App.4th 1478, 80 Cal.Rptr.3d 745, f there was evidence suggesting a hospital's governing board might have sought to terminate a physician’s privileges for reasons not bearing on quality of care <br /><br />It is known that the governing body have taken action against physicians for causes other than patient safety Smith vs Selma community hospital 164 Cal.App.4th 1478 (2008<br /><br /> Preamble in CA B&P 809 regarding Physician disciplinary actions clearly mention legislative intent that a peer review conducted badly results in public safety threat by denying access to care .<br /><br />Mass hysteria about bad doctors peaked in 80's and 90's wherein public got concerned about bad physicians moving from one facility to another without accountability.<br /><br />Medical profession has its share of bad members just as the public and they deserve to be disciplined <br />On the other side there is increasing tendencies of some hospitals to misuse the immunity statutory provisions of peer review to carry on vindictive actions in bad faith against physicians who have developed adversarial relationship because of whistle-blowing, policy differences and financial disputes .<br />The hospital corporations are now backed by a industry created which includes corporate law firms , think tanks( Horty Springer from Philadelphia) and compliant hearing officers who are selected on their track record and judicial philosophy as evidenced by their Amicus Curiae filings in higher courts on behalf of hospital legal interests .<br /><br />Real threat to public in mass scale comes from medical industrial complex. Not a day passes without revelation in national of hundreds if not thousands of patients getting hurt by shoddy medical devices hoisted on unsuspecting public without proper clinical trials. Also by unnecessary procedures(mainly cardiac and Orthopedic ) and expensive unneeded diagnostic studies.<br />The issues are gargantuan and are equivalent to few jumbo planes crashing everyday. We seem to focus on the cabin crew stewards (physicians) instead of Pilots(CEOs) , traffic controllers( Corporate Executives) and maintenance crew<br />B&P code 809 needs to be tightened and loopholes closed so that there is no chance for misuse<br /><br /> R.V.Rao M.D.R.V.Raohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02707537739286797674noreply@blogger.com
