Hepatologist Trotter told Richard O'Connor, PHP's medical director, that Hunter was too sick to travel. O'Connor replied that the patient could stay at Duke through the weekend, but if he stabilized during that time, PHP wanted him flown to Tuscaloosa, Ala., on Tuesday. O'Connor also told Trotter, according to the insurer, that if Hunter's condition worsened over the weekend, Duke was "authorized" to perform a transplant...
...Hunter, meanwhile, is desperate. Her attempts to reach Brown at PHP on Friday were thwarted, she says, by a full voice-mail queue. She wants her husband to stay at Duke under the care of Drs. Trotter and Tuttle, whom she trusts. When a woman at PHP she believes was Brown finally returned her call Tuesday afternoon on the pay phone near the surgery ward, her message to Kim was that PHP "had a deal" with Duke that if it hadn't transplanted Todd over the weekend, it would move him to unc.

...economy is slowing from its blistering pace of late 1997 and early 1998, when growth rates ranged between 3.0% and 5.5% annually, and the sag is virtually certain to continue into next year.

Gordon, however, points out that if wage increases cut into profits, that is good news for workers, at least those who stay off the unemployment lines. Labor is likely to recapture some of the share of national income it lost to profits in the early '90s. To the extent that wage increases run ahead of price boosts, workers' real incomes will also rise absolutely as well as relatively. And that is likely to happen, despite the fact that most of the economists expect inflation to quicken a bit from its current astonishingly slow pace--an annual rate of less than...
