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 22 new judgments to hospitals,
doctors, or other medical providers totaling $335,104.
·
There
were four satisfied judgments, totaling $34,118.
·
And,
there were three health care related bankruptcies, totaling $83,275.
New this year, I’m tracking filings for each of the four Syracuse hospitals. Here’s the breakdown for this week:
·
Crouse
had seven, totaling $102,931
·
St
Joe’s had two, totaling $26,640
·
SUNY
Upstate had 16, totaling $227,134
·
Community
General, a part of Upstate, had one, for $16,006
The paper publishes only those accounts of at least $5,000.
