Committee Rejects Doctor's Bill Sent To Boy's Parents
A Long Island medical mediation panel ruled Benny Hooper's $1,500 bill should not be paid by his financially unable parents. Dr Joseph H Kris had faced wide criticism for the fee tied to Benny's rescue from a 24 foot well. The committee redirected any gifts toward the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis and praised the doctor’s care while noting the disputed charge was based on an overestimate of funds received by the family.
