Each week, I track health care related filings. I include anything that is clearly a debt owed to a hospital, nursing home, physician or physician group, medical supplier, and so on; I do not include filings by insurance companies, many of which are so diversified it would not be a fair assumption that the filing is related to medical care or health insurance.
·
This week, there were 35 new judgments to hospitals,
doctors, or other medical providers totaling $518,036.
·
There
were two satisfied judgments, totaling $33,191.
·
And,
there were five health care related bankruptcies, totaling $98,430.
New this year, I’m tracking filings for each of the four Syracuse hospitals. Here’s the breakdown for this week:
·
Crouse
had 17, totaling $218,682
·
St
Joe’s had nine, totaling $134,448
·
SUNY
Upstate had 11, totaling $252,905
·
Community
General, a part of Upstate, had three, totaling $28,296.
The paper publishes only those accounts of at least $5,000.
