I’ve seen this too often as well. It would be interesting to create a listing of hospitals that are designed to handle “end of life” situations well. We have all types of lists; why not this one?

This would be a valuable data collection exercise for
@PressGaney--families' reports about care after a patient has died. I'm not aware that this is done, or at least that it's reported separately.

Grateful to read this. Painfully close to my own experience of taking lmy Dad home AMA so he could die the way he wanted, with his kids. And I can’t help but think that if this is how it went for the Emanuels, it’s hard to imagine how it could go much better for anyone else.

An important message for families: in situations like this, it's OK to advocate (or fight, if necessary) for things NOT to be done. Though we shouldn't have to.

GR8 story (reminiscent of Dr. Kitzhaber's story about a window AC preventing a $40K emergency MCare bill), but conclusion = total non-sequitur. Our whole system has been optimized 4 revenue/profits, so how can Zeke Emanuel say that ".. it has less 2 do w/ financial incentives?"pic.twitter.com/LHQN4r2ITk

The crisis is that most people don’t get affordable, quality medical care. Let’s not ever forget that when we consider that some people get too much treatment at end or life.

So true! One has to have the understanding of the system to over rule doctors. Information is the treasure!
