"Every rule has an exception." I think that rule's exception is when it comes to ethics. Not to say that the ethical thing to do is always clear cut. But to seek to do the ethical thing is a responsibility without exception. Integrity, after all, is about consistency in values and action.

My hospital recently received a letter from the Dept of Justice requesting information and auditing of records for kyphoplasty procedures performed from 2000 - 2008. Has anyone else received this letter or gone through this process?
Also, it appears that some facilities self reported to the DOJ back in 2008. Did anyone do that?

On July 4, 1776, the Continental Congress adopted the Declaration of Independence, announcing the independence of the 13 American colonies from the Kingdom of Great Britain.
On the Fourth of July, and everyday, its words resound more strongly than the loudest of fireworks:
“…We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness…”

I am also interested in not only the policy, but the process to handle those notes not to be released as deemed by the patient.

On Friday I saw some behavior that made me wonder if a faith in ethics is worth having, absent a strong compliance regime.
I was on a plane and, after the doors closed, the flight attendants made the usual announcement about turning off all electronic devices until ten minutes after take off. It's a rule that is announced on every flight, but as every frequent flyer knows, it is poorly enforced. The flight attendants often don't notice people breaking it, and many passengers hide their use of the devices. Plus, some people honestly forget and leave their phones on the entire flight.
