HealthcareClient Communication & Experience5CriticalRN (Registered Nurse)$ implied

RNs are being instructed to withhold information from patients about an upcoming insurance contract termination, potentially disrupting cancer treatment and causing large bills, with no clear reporting path.

There is no internal system for transparently communicating insurance contract changes to patients, and the hospital's directive to conceal information creates ethical and legal conflicts for staff.
