Hospital Sues A Patient

_________________________________________________

For Refusing To Leave.

A reader sent me this link today. What perfect timing. Considering I just wrote a blog entry about Hospital Junkies this morning.

Saint Elizabeth Regional Medical Center has filed a lawsuit against a woman who refused to leave the hospital after being discharged.

Gayle Strohacker was hospitalized Aug. 22, according to documents filed in district court. She was discharged sometime thereafter but refused to leave the hospital until Wednesday.

The hospital’s complaint filed Oct. 3 in Lancaster County District Court said Strohacker ran up a bill of $124,888, and the hospital seeks payment plus 12 percent annual interest, as spelled out by Nebraska statute.


If you wanna play, you have to pay.
