Wrong information in MyChart medical records

So without getting too personal my wife has a very important procedure coming up. She got a call to answer the typical pre-op questions. When they got to the drug use section the nurse says it says here that you quit the use of heroin and cocaine 2 weeks ago. Which shocked us both she has never touched either.

So afterwords we went through her MyChart records and sure enough it says from around 8 years ago it says admits cocaine use (again untrue I was with her at this appointment)

At some point the record changed to cocaine and heroin use quit 2 weeks ago . This has never been brought up by any of her doctors until now so we never noticed it. The problem is it is now effecting this procedure coming up and we need to get everything fixed . We did contact the doctor that originally signed off on this but no response (mind you this is the same doctor that wrongfully told her to put shampoo on a rash to get rid of it)

I guess my question is how does something like this happen, does this happen often and what’s the best way to get this fixed?

I understand healthcare is a female dominated area, but as a male in healthcare it seems problematic that there are hardly any men during most of the hiring process in healthcare. How are we supposed to feel there isn't gatekeeping going on?

There have been times where I've had HR recruitment interviews, 1st round panel interviews, and 2nd round interviews and everyone in that process was a woman. How would a woman feel if every part of the hiring process she went through there were only men every step of the way. I wish they would prioritize male representation at most hospitals and don't get me started on race. It's to the point where I can already tell the race of a person in certain positions just by looking at some of the staff. Staff is usually a mix with majority minorities, management or supervisor is usually a black woman, associate director or director is usually a white woman, and the person she answers to is usually a white man. I've worked in healthcare for 20 years at different systems around the country and this is usually how it is. This isn't right because there is a clear bias that exists in healthcare administration and it's clear that certain positions are more accessible to others based on factors applicants can't control like gender and race.

The Court Finally Approved InnovAge $27M Settlement with Investors Over Serious Healthcare Issues

Hey guys, if you missed it, the court recently approved the InnovAge settlement with investors over hiding info about the healthcare centers' true conditions after its IPO a few years ago. And set the deadline to file a claim.

Quick recap: Back in 2021, $INNV went public, promoting its innovative and high-quality model of coordinated care for frail seniors. They provided their services through PACE, which Medicare and Medicaid primarily fund.

But later that year, the company was accused by federal agencies of serious care and staffing issues at most key facilities. Enrollment at major centers was suspended after that, and $INNV dropped over 78%.

Soon, shareholders filed a lawsuit against InnovAge for hiding key issues during its IPO.

Now, more than 3 years later, InnovAge decided to settle and pay $27M to investors for their losses. And the court finally approved the agreement. So, if you got hit by this, you can check if you’re eligible for payment and submit a claim.

Anyways, did anyone here buy $INNV back then? How much were your losses if so?
