There are several issues that Lawler as the CEO must address in the above case. At first, Lawler is expected to address the issue of Jeremy Spring, a patient who had just been brought to the emergency department. His case is complicated because he is found to be above the federal poverty level, which is mainly used as the basis for granting charity care at sunrise.
