Manage symptoms? Reduce pressure, anxiety, stress, eat this don't eat that? I'm very familiar with long term care, LTC facilities. Dead residents don't generate revenue but a vegetable on life support does! According to the CDC, in (Phone number can only be seen by the question and answer creators) people died of heart disease, 584,881 died of cancer, and 149,205 died of chronic respiratory disease—the top three causes of death in the U.S. The newly calculated figure for MEDICAL ERRORS puts this cause of death behind cancer but ahead of respiratory disease. The operation was a success but the patient died? There's a pill for that?
