💨 Abstract

In a $750 million settlement, Columbia University and New York-Presbyterian Hospital have agreed to pay hundreds of sexual abuse claims by patients of former gynecologist Robert Hadden. Hadden was convicted of federal sex crime charges and sentenced to 20 years in prison. The settlement, approved by a Manhattan judge, comes in 576 cases over Hadden's decades-long abuse at the prestigious hospitals.
