Doctors calling for Johnson to release system money

Published September 29, 2007 4:00am ET



Some Prince George’s County Hospital system doctors are saying it’s time for County Executive Jack Johnson to release the millions of dollars the county has been withholding from the system.

“I think that the system has tried to do the things that the county has asked for,” said Carnell Cooper, chief of trauma surgery at Prince George’s Hospital Center in Cheverly. “I think they have done a good job and I think at this point, that the county should release the money in order to take care of the short term problems we have.”
