Doctors Sue Prime Hospital Over Profit-Driven Practices
A dozen San Bernardino County physicians have filed a lawsuit alleging that Chino Valley Medical Center -- a Prime Healthcare Services hospital -- is unlawfully blocking access to patient hospitalization notifications because the doctors have refused to participate in profit-driven practices established by the hospital. A Prime spokesperson in a statement dismissed the lawsuit as one with "no merit" and "a regurgitation of unproven allegations."
