Quote of the Day
“Steward didn’t produce audited financials because Steward doesn’t have audited financials,” Healey said, “which says something about and speaks to the very thing that we have complained about for a long time, which is: [the company is] a house of cards and a charade that has put patients and providers in the stability of our market at risk.”
