To Date There Has Been No Response From Greenwich Hospital CEO Frank Corvino

Dear Mr. Corvino, We would like to interview you for a news story concerning Greenwich Hospital employees releasing Greenwich First Selectman And Police Commissioner Peter Tesei's confidential personal and medical records in public, along with the release of other mental health patient's confidential personal and medical records. We would further like cover in the interview how Greenwich Hospital and the Yale New Haven Medical System handled complaints about these records being released by the hospital's employees, and what if any actions were taken to insure that the employees did not mock or release the personal medical records of patients in public areas of Greenwich Hospital. Also, we would like to ask you about Greenwich Hospital's guest services calling two Greenwich Police officers when they received a formal complaint concerning Greenwich Hospital employees releasing Greenwich First Selectman And Police Commissioner Peter Tesei's confidential personal and medical records in public, along with the release of other mental health patient's confidential personal and medical records. Lastly, we would like to ask questions about negative actions that Greenwich Hospital administrators and doctors took against any whistle blowers who in good faith alerted the hospital that its employees were mocking patients and releasing their confidential personal and medical information in public. We would like you to address for our readers what some our suggesting is a cover up by you and others Greenwich Hospital doctors and administrators. sincerely, Brian Harrod Greenwich Roundup Editor / Publisher http://greenwichroundup.blogspot.com/
