Breaking news on Small Smiles Dental Center's NY Litigation - DeRose's don't get too comfy out there in Colorado

I'm sure many readers have been wondering what is happening with the many lawsuits going on against Small Smiles Dental Center's in New York. Well, there is news, and it sucks. Not for the plaintiff's - the abused children, but for all those "lawyered up" assholes who invented, perfected and continued with the abuse of these babies.

The poor 9sarcasm) defendants - the DeRose bunch, the Nashville bunch, the culprit dentists, and the new and improved 2012 Nashville bunch had Motioned the court for a hundred different things. Some were crying, wanting parts of the allegations against them dismissed - in part or completely. Some whined about discovery issues and trial dates and issues, and some just wanted to cause delays, delays and more delays.

Well, Judge John Cherundolo delivered his decision later Thursday afternoon in a whopping 38 39 page Decision.

What was the Judge's decision, you ask? DENIED DENIED DENIED DENIED DENIED and by the way DENIED.  AND, while I'm at it, we are having a trial in February, another in March and hold on, boys, another headed your way in April, so put that in your pipes and "smoke it". If you want to get out of this mess, get the check book out and put lots and lots of zeros...order bigger checks if you need them. Well, he didn't say that exactly... but you get the idea.

New York Small Smiles Dental Litigation Ruling Dentists that want to continue in this scamming scheme better hold on and get ready to pay the piper...play time is OVER.  Oh, and don't think the attorney's for your insurance company are up there worried about your butt, cause they are NOT! They are worried about their own!

To the insurance companies, you all are idiots for continuing to cover these creeps and deserve to payout $1,000,000 times for every dollar you took in...as you are part of the scam too!

CSHM–Small Smiles Dental May 2012 Operations Report as filed in Middle Tennessee Bankruptcy court.

Church Street Health Management May 2012 Expense/Operation Report Doc 435

Closing Day for Church Street Health Management-Small Smiles Dental Centers

No, not closing the doors, but I expect that soon.

Today was supposed to be the closing day for the sale of Church Street Health Management.

Yes, Church Street Health Management, LLC will now become CSHM, LLC with basically the same Private Equity Investors as before, CIT Corporation and others. The Carlyle Group swears they are out of it, I’m not sure. They say the “exited” in the last year. It must have been in the last 6 months!

Sales and Credit Agreement

The investors basically sunk another $25 million dollars into the company in February to keep it afloat while it “reorganized”. Whatever that means. No one else wanted to jump on the sinking ship so …. it became the property of the same folks.  If they aren’t pissed, they should be.

Since then they have ended up the subject of at least two Bloomberg reports. As usual they never come out looking good. But, honestly, how could they? They whole bunch are dirty rotten scoundrels. 

Abusing children and raping taxpayers is NOT exactly the best way to prosperity. These folks are so bad, even Don Meyer, who is notorious for selling snake oil to American’s can spin this one. All he can say is “we are providing care to the underserved”. He says it over and over and over…  If you listened to them, there would be no sex at all, unless you’re raped.

Still doesn’t it make it so. The once “underserved” are the most “overserved” in America when it comes to dental care these days.

I think things may be getting worse for the CSHM, LLC. I know, it’s hard to believe things could get worse-Bankrupt, Congressional Investigations, Corporate Integrity Agreement, and so forth-but they can.

The first few days of the new ownership is probably gonna suck!

According to sources, Met Life and United Concordia/Tricare are canceling their contracts with Small Smiles Dental Centers. 

If true, revenues just went to hell, again. If they couldn’t make it before, they certainly can’t make it now.

PS – If asked to sign some kind of Transition, Separation, Confidential, Severance and General Agreement, in exchange for a week’s pay, I would have an attorney look it over. Personally, unless they removed sections 4, 7, 8, 13 and clarified in writing why it says it’s governed by the state of Tennessee, and why Church Street Health Management is a “Released Party”, I wouldn’t sign it, no way, no how… Just saying…

Church Street Health Management-Small Smiles Dental burned through another Compliance Officer? Seriously doubt they are going to need one anyway.

Job Posting

If the company isn’t willing to “comply” it doesn’t matter how many “compliance officers” you hire.

Who would want to go to work for a company:

1. on the chopping block
2. has been in serious financial difficulty for 3 or more years!
3. blows through compliance officers like kids thru bubble gum
4. who has failed to even want to comply with the Corporate Integrity Agreement they are under. (see the Auditors Report for 2009 and 2010 in the below Sales Agreement link.
 

Here is a Sales Agreement between the entities to the new CSHM,LLC in 2011. That not would be, old FORBA, not new FORBA, but FORBA III. It’s a real page turner.

Anyway here is the job description.. lol

(that up to this point we’ve basically disregarded because we can’t make moola if we comply)This position is a high profile (it will be when you are jailed) and fast paced (looking for places to hide) position with visibility (too visible) to Executive management, the Board of Directors and (very) significant governmental constituents. Attention to detail, organization skills, ability to see the big picture and accuracy are critically important skill sets.
