LA Supes Focus on Fate of King-Drew
September 27, 2006 - Los Angeles County will appeal Martin Luther King, Jr.-Drew Medical Center's looming loss of all federal funding to an administrative law judge in the US Health and Human Services Department, says county Supervisor Yvonne Braithwaite Burke. The board finished a second day of closed-door huddling over the hospital's fate, Tuesday. The Los Angeles Times reports county supervisors will focus on two possible options: turning King-Drew over to a private hospital company or to managers of another LA County-owned hospital.
