DOC 1 : This document SHOWN BELOW was submitted in the new fictitious name of the facility before registration - new Columbia Blake Medical Center [registered 6/3/96] - letter date 4/4/96 - two months early old HCA L.W. Blake Hospital [expired 2/31/97] Medicare/Medicaid billing is possibly still being made under this expired name - hiding inpatient/outpatient treatments and allowing for illegal billing . ---These documents were obtained from AHCA! AHCA is no longer providing any information. The only official owner of the facility is HCA Health Services of Florida, Inc.. This corporation is buried 6 corporation levels deep below HCA, Inc.. Our Senate Majority leader, Bill Frist, owns 25 million in stocks in his father-brother founded hospital corporation- HCA, Inc. This is the major hospital corporation chain in the United States and has recently paid 1.7 billion dollars in settlement of criminal charges to the US government. Aside from controlling all items to be brought onto the Senate floor, Sen. Frist, a very smooth talking physician, is a known cat-killer. It looks like this phony name was used to create phony records of care, which Zoe never got, and health conditions Zoe never had. Zoe died in a Florida nursing home in Bradenton, IHS. The bankrupt corporation has been unable to find the Medicare bill for her stay. Despite repeated attempts to receive an itemized bill for Zoe's stay, Carol has only received a ledger card, which has no accurate dates but shows Zoe departing the facility one and one half days before her death here. The facility did not report her death as required by law and AHCA thought this was fine. DOC 1: |
This is the way Florida's AHCA gives permission to HCA [Columbia Blake Medical Center in Bradenton] for a new Facility: Yes, please you can build it just anywhere you want ! - also on paper? AHCA gave permission for a site unseen. This site, as indicated by Zoe's case, appears to have been used to bilk Medicare - inpatients were on paper scheduled at the paper "outpatient facility." Medicare was billed for doctors like the emergency room doctors. In other words, the hospital billing is open to manipulation and administrative errors and legalized Medicare fraud in the interest of profits - not patients! The question of ambulance company involvement in this fraud is still open. |

The law cited below does not apply to the former letter./ letter above. DOC 2 This is a strange correspondence citing paragraphs of law, which do not apply to this case. A hospital is free to build a senior health center at any time. This writing gives a hospital {HCA LW Blake or Columbia Blake Medical Center} to build an outpatient facility for Medicare patients. According to AHCA these names do not exist today Yet they are found in reports of errors [see administration of medical radiation error and in "clerkships" with the University of Florida. The Medicare intermediary/Carrier First Coast Service Options, Inc. has reported that it has paid Zoe's bill to "HCA L.W. Blake Memorial Hospital" and the emergency physician bill to "HCA L.W. Blake Hospital" and it has no "Blake Medical Center." Blake Medical Center is the only licensed hospital in Bradenton, which AHCA has reported to SPCP. When AHCA does [did] investigations/complaints about this Bradenton hospital, it used both ID 100213 [the real Medicare Oscar reported ID number for this hospital] and also ID 107213 [This was the ID for home health services of Gentiva - owned by HCA and according to HCFA registered in Dunedin, FL - several hundred miles from Bradenton. In the strange outpatient facility address found in the license, there was also a Gentiva. The building only has two real physical units ----BUT OF COURSE, LOTS OF ROOM FOR PAPER ADDRESSES, which Florida AHCA accepts. DOC 2: |
DOC 3 is Blake's canceled license, because SPCP reported to AHCA that there are no such outpatient facilities! The CEO of Blake, Lindell Orr, perjured himself on the hospital license application. There was no outpatient facility on 53rd Ave. Penalty? Hell, no - AHCA doesn't penalize large healthcare providers like HCA and IHS. Lindell got demoted to Sarasota's Doctors Hospital - another HCA facility. He can surely manipulate the records and bills there as well as he did at Blake. The risk manager,Anita Vogel, who arranged for Zoe's highly critical heparin adverse incident cover-up at Blake, moved on to Manatee Memorial Hospital in Bradenton. Anita can surely cover up adverse incidents there as well as at Blake. Is the patient endangered - yes. Are profit making hospitals - not in your life, honey - never in Florida! The Wrongful Death Clause eliminates old malpractice victims without fear of any lawsuit, ever! DOC 3: |
DOC 4 The license below [proportions are distorted for upright position] has the "outpatient rehab" facility, which is found on lots of papers. Zoe was never there except on paper. AHCA investigated the GENTIVA ID, home healthcare which is found at the 53rd Ave address. Zoe never was there except on paper. It is easier to control outcome and quality of care at paper facilities. HCA appears to have lots of them and as long as the campaign funds keep coming, none of our polititians appear to care about the patients of this state. Did you notice how Gov. Bush's office contacted the HCA CEO's to put pressure on our Senators, who were against caps in the Tampa-Region? HCA good government? You can see the doctors are not as important as the hospital corporations. AHCA's Region 6 office has a special "integrity" officer to stop any investigations of HCA hospitals before they start - Ms. Sarantos is the key figure. She ignored facts to ensure that HCA and IHS would have no problems. That patients would be abused and maybe die from incorrect use of heparin, etc. did not phase AHCA or Gov. Jeb Bush! Bring on the campaign funds from healthcare providers and insurance companies! DOC 4: |
