Poor oversight of the 340B program has empowered hospitals and PBMs to exploit charity care to pad their own profits by capturing the savings intended for needy patients.
The CEO of the North Country Hospital in Newport, Vermont has resigned following a no-confidence vote by medical staff and a growing number of vacancies. CEO Brian Nall made the announcement Monday he is officially resigning. Former medical staff told WCAX that management decisions had created an unsafe work environment and pushed many people to leave their positions. As of last Friday, there were 100 open positions listed on the hospital's website.
