Medicare reimbursement in Alabama was the lowest rate in the nation. This was a constant struggle for the hospital administrators to try to operate on such low reimbursements for their services, which is a threat. Eighty percent of patients were Medicare or Blue Cross in which there was difficulty-negotiating prices with Blue Cross due to monopoly.

Previously named as “The Holy Name of Jesus Hospital”, the facility was owned and operated by Catholic nuns.

I feel that Dr. P has a case in this situation. I feel he has the ability to sue for compensatory damages. I would argue that Dr. P is a public figure. As you said he is the foremost academic on exposure to violence and the human psyche. Since he is a public figure and his work is important to public interest. Because of this we have to prove malice. In this case we also have to determine how defamation of DR. P is present. We have to answer how his reputation is being harmed, how his standing in the community is being harmed.

Success is not accomplished overnight and instead rises from the ashes of a companies lowest points. Styker is just like any other company and also faced significant challenges such as a currency debacle of 3.7 percent constant currency that was negatively impacted by a significant second-half slowdown in China and Brazil. The sales declines in China and Brazil were offset by growth in other international markets, especially the developed markets of Europe, Japan and Australia, which had strong constant currency growth in 2015 (Stryker, n.d.).
