This week, fellow Boston health care blogger Paul Levy (Running a Hospital) continues to chronicle the thrust-and-parry between SEIU and the Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, where he is CEO, as the SEIU’s tactics get some ink in the NY Times.  In this round, the SEIU writes to BIDMC trustees who work in the for-profit world, questioning BIDMC financial reports and pushing Sarbanes-Oxley-type responsibilities for the board.  Paul puts the current tactics in perspective in his post.
