The article talked about over treating. This is a problem when docs adn hospitals are more worried about being sued than actually doing rational medicine. Goes from say a CAT scan for a headache to an upper GI for a stomache ache.
Reinforces that all hospitals can be a dangerous place, unfortunately. Having a physician that can provide excellent treatment and, in addition, watch out for the pitfalls that arise ( missed medications, wrong medications, inaccurate reports, etc) is key to offset problems in a hospital system.
