Kaiser Plaza Headquarters Patient Abandonment, Violation of Federal and State Elder Abuse Laws, Fraud (Charging $5,000 for Zero Services)

Let me outline briefly how a set of circumstances, that comprised the most easily resolved medical problem on the planet, has evolved into a tsunami of gigantic proportions.

Approximately three months ago, an elderly man (69 yr old former football player) who had been treated for a deteriorating skeletal condition for ten years, was assigned a temporary replacement
Permanente physician, Dr. Susan Scholey, while his permanent physician, Dr. Gary Rinzler, took a few weeks to rest.

Dr. Scholey decided that, even though X-rays and ten years of ongoing evidence of success with this patient were present, they were insufficient.

Dr. Scholey therefore, placed an assessment requirement before the patient which was not part of the agreement the patient had with his permanent doctor, an assessment that Dr. Scholey could not defend in terms of either science or medical necessity.
