Our tax money goes to El Camino Healthcare District which gives it to El Camino Hospital. El Camino Hospital buys all sorts of stuff in Los Gatos and now Gilroy which is outside of the district but its all OK because the tax money doesn't directly fund the Gilroy stuff. Its money laundering where the taxes pay for patient care in MV but that patient care is very profitable due to the tax subsidies and the profits pay for these other hospitals.

Now the recent BIG donation from the property owner Sobrato to ECH makes sense- they own the buildings the clinics lease...grease the wheels

As long as I have lived in MV, staff, nurses, and even MD's at El Camino Hospital have been at war with hospital management due to extreme anger with the hospital board's and its senior management's policies. My last two medical experiences there were elective surgeries in 2010, and the nurses were hostile, uncaring, and unwilling to give patients like me even minimally proper care. Since then, I've resolved NEVER to return to that so-called "hospital". Even both my surgical MD's all have severed connection with them due to other patients' similar horrible experiences.

This latest, incredibly ignorant and stupid acquisition of failed and horribly managed Verity Medical Foundation clinics just has validated my "No Mas" decision. I'm not sure exactly what the board members of the El Camino "Hospital" District are thinking, but to me they appear to be totally ignorant and incompetent (at best).

All my "humble" opinion of course. But since I used to be a medical caregiver, I think that my "humble" opinion is quite accurate and important in this continuing debate about the relevance of supporting the El Camino "Hospital" District.

We have to get rid of these so called managers who do this stupid out of district acquisitions.
I am hoping that someone knows how us tax payers can take back our hospital district.
My health insurance company tells me that I can’t go to this hospital, this makes me very angry and that’s before this kind of nonsense.
