Lawrence County has several County run hospitals. Because three privately run hospitals are now in the county
Lawrence has decided to close one of its seven county hospitals, to reduce costs to the county. The county executives want to choose a hospital to close so that its absence has the fewest negative health consequences to the citizens of the county. An independant consulting firm, advising the county executives, has recommended closing the hospital with the highest fatality rate.
Which of the following, if true, most seriously calls into question the consulting firm's recommendation of which hospital to close?
A. Each of the county run hospitals has a lower fatality rate than atleast one of the privately run hospitals.
B. The county hospital that is the most expensive for the county to operate is the one with the highest fatality rate.
C. Most patients who would have gone to the closed county hospital will go to one of the privately run hospitals, instead of one of the six remaining county run hospitals, driving up costs at these places.
D. The most at-risk patients are referred to those public hospitals that have a high concentration of trained specialists on staff.
E. Throughout this state and the neighboring states, no county that has a population comparable to that of the Lawrence County, operates more than six County hospitals.
