Hillarie Levy has begun a campaign for greater oversight of health related laws in California.  On August 20, 2005 The Ventura county Star newspapers did a story on her current work and it may be found at:

View Hillarie Levy with Vickie Travis discussing Kaiser Permanente and the California Medical Board  on "In Focus" at KEYT Santa Barbara.


The Los Angeles Times covered this story and the systemic Kaiser system problem of delaying diagnosis and providing inadquate treatment.  In short often just letting patients die without telling them that they could be helped.

Simi Valley woman wants daughter’s doctors publicy named for misdiagnoses
By Michelle Knight knight@theacorn.com
In 2002, her daughter Robyn Libitsky was granted an arbitration award of nearly $1 million after suing Kaiser Foundation Health Plan and several of its doctors because they misdiagnosed her medical condition.
Ever since, Levy has been on a crusade to have the Medical Board of California note on its website every Kaiser doctor named in the arbitration award. They did so for only one of the doctors named in the document.  Read more:

From the L.A. County Board of Supervisors

"This scheme was primarily conducted in Supervisor Zaroslavsky's office. where mail and faxes were sent to and from his office........." Beginning on page 88 of the document.  See:
http://robynlibitsky.kaiserpapers.info/01-09-07 Board Meeting Transcript.doc


Mrs. Levy later had retaliatory action publicly made against her by someone in The Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors because she was singled out and banned from speaking in this public meeting for a period of three months.  Other members of the public were not banned and were allowed to continually participate.  Mrs. Levy took this issue to the Los Angeles District Attorney's Office - Bureau of Fraud and Corruption Prosecutions Public Integrity Division. The attached letter states that this action was not made in the spirit of the Brown Act and the ordinance has since been modified although the Board of Supervisiors have yet to make the correction to their web site.  Please view the letter at:

Directive from Robyn Libitsky stating that no one could use her organs for transplant at any time nor could anyone over ride her decision.  Copy of Medical Record where Dr. Shahab Attarchi of Kaiser Permanente attempted to coerice Hillarie, Robyn's mother into having her daughter's corneas removed in violation of Health and Safety Code and policy violation of the organ procurement agency.  This was out of line behavior.  This was dangerous and could have made another person seriously ill.  http://robynlibitsky.kaiserpapers.info/cornea.html

Health and Safety Code 7154(b) prohibits the attending physician, etc., from participating in organ donations.  However, the Kaiser physician did just that and no government agency in California cares.  Kaiser doctor Shabab Attarchi, the attending physician didn't seem to care that in violation of the law he was trying to get the patients corneas.  He also didn't care that because the patients bone marrow was involved the corneas were considered unsafe for transplanting into another person.  When Medicare is guaranteeing the bill will be paid, I guess that Kaiser doesn't care about much of anything except getting their check in the mail.
