Things That Make You Go Hmmm-Gordon Watts
Excerpt .. full page at link above
PHILADELPHIA CONSOL. HLD. (NASDAQ) aka "Philadelphia Consolidated" Insurance Company has just recently bought JERGER & CENTONZE INSURNACE AGENCY, INC., (at which, apparently, Michael Schiavo's girlfriend, Jodi Centozone, works) according to *this* article in Philidelphia Biz Journals dot com.
And, Michael Schiavo would stand to gain if the Hospice were insured by this company but did not have to pay out any large malpractice claim for refusing to give Terri swallowing therapy for thirteen (13) years. Are they insured by Jerger & Centonze? If they are, could this info be private?
While I don't wish to speculate, a friend brought this possible connection to my attention.

When was Terri moved to the Hospice in which she is held currently?
