The Hidden Patient
cannot speak out... here's why: "An
estimated 98,000 preventable deaths
occur in American hospitals each year due to medical errors.
With no significant improvement
over the last five years, we may
have lost an additional 490,000 Americans due to our failure to
improve patient safety."
