That was a great company he founded. The hospital I worked for used their service. After a certain hour at night, all of our radiology stuff was sent to their radiologists in Australia overnight, because our Radiologists didn’t want to be on call all night. I maintained the VPN connection and interfacing for our system to theirs, should any issues arise with networking/communications. I bet they made a dammed fortune off that system.

From a prostate cancer support group site:
"Look at he recommendations for PSA tests. They cut those to nothing as there were "too many subsequent biopsies performed". They basically threw baby and bathwater out w/o replacing it with any of the newer diagostic tools. Talked to my insurance carrier and let them know how much more they had to spend as a result of that policy change. For a $50 PSA and maybe $100 (for) Free PSA they could have caught my PC 18 mos earlier, saving the carrier money, me an RP (resection of prostate) and ADT (androgen deprivation therapy) for two years.

"It has to come from the bottom up because the wonks are not looking out for anyone but their policy."
