I hate corporate english

So, this is a direct quote from teh Temple University SOM website regarding the Geisinger Hospital satelite campus for medical education:

"The program enters students into the new paradigm of patient-centered care, an information environment that provides high-exposure, transparent outcomes data on quality and cost, and a consumer/regulatory base that is demanding this information. "

KEEP THE CORPORATE CONSULTANTS AWAY FROM ANYTHING THAT NORMAL PEOPLE MUST READ. I think when people get their MBA's they are issued a 20 sided die with words like "paradigm", "transparent", "outcomes-based", "customer oriented", "impact (as a verb)" which they employ more or less randomly with prose that reads like the tripe above.
