Breach Of Contract By Hospital On Surgical Company
Question
Washington Hospital enters into an agreement with Acme Surgical Instruments to purchase surgical instruments from Acme for a two-year period. The contract sets forth quality standards that require at least 95% of the surgical instruments to be suitable for Washington Hospital’s purposes. From the first month of the arrangement, only 90% of the surgical instruments met the quality standards. At first, Washington Hospital does not advise Acme of the problem because Washington Hospital needs to keep its operating rooms performing and it hopes that Acme will improve its performance. However, after six months, Washington Hospital wants to terminate the contract.
1. What contract clause or clauses should Washington Hospital review before terminating the agreement? Please explain your answer.
2. Assume the same facts except Washington Hospital’s Hospital Administrator orally tells Acme that it can live with the 90% quality level but Acme needs to improve its performance. Does this modify the contract? What contract clause or clauses would you review to determine your answer to this question and why? Would your answer be different if the Hospital Administrator sent a letter? Why or why not?
3. What defenses could Acme assert against Washington Hospital?
4. Assume that Acme sues Washington Hospital. Since Acme is a small company with few resources, Acme wants to recover its attorneys’ fees. Is this possible? What contract clauses should be reviewed and why?
Summary
The question belongs to Law and it discusses about a scenario where a hospital contracts a surgical company for supplying equipment and sets a quality standard of 95%. But the surgical company does not confirm to the quality standards. The hospital wants to terminate the contract. This has been discussed in the solution.

WHAT OUR STUDENTS SAY
I was really worried about my nursing ethics case study assignment which was related to the issue of nurses sharing their photos along with their patients’ in the internet. I was confused about what stand to take when I came across HwA. That was the first work they did for me. From there it only got better. I am now thinking of doing my MN and will definitely seek their help for that.

I had missed the classes on Isometrics because I had to miss school for some family emergencies. With the existing course load I had not got time to catch up with the topic and so when time came to write the assignment on Isometrics I was absolutely clueless. Thanks to the basic mathematics assignment experts at HwA I was able to not only understand the assignment but also submit the essay on time. The quality of work provided is also very high and I have been noticing an upturn in my overall grades.

As a foreign student new to the methods of teaching in the States I desperately needed some personal tutoring with the topics of Stats for my graduate level program. HwA broke my misconception about online services being good only for school students and undergrads by providing me with excellent online stats tutoring for my Masters level requirements.

Hello Allison,I love the 2nd image that you did! I also, had never heard of SumoPaint, is something that I will have to exolpre a bit! I understand completely the 52 (or so) youtube videos that you probably watched. Sometimes they have what you want, sometimes they don't! However, it is always satisfying when you are able to produce something that you have taught yourself. Great job!Debra 0 likes
