Patient advocate Dara Fenn has eight questions, a clipboard, and one simple job: listen to patients before they leave Mercy Regional Hospital.
Then Marian Okafor tells her the admission date in her chart is wrong.
Two days wrong.
Another patient reports the same thing.
Then Dara discovers both records were quietly corrected after discharge, late at night, through an administrative credential called ADM-7.
Dara has seen institutions explain away inconvenient facts before. This time, she keeps a record.
What begins as a minor discrepancy becomes a pattern involving elderly and vulnerable patients, altered admission dates, questionable discharge timing, unexplained readmissions, and an internal warning that reached the executive level-and disappeared.
The closer Dara gets to understanding what happened, the more carefully Mercy Regional begins watching her.
A routine review of her records access. A friendly meeting with a department director. A restructuring that suddenly makes her position expendable.
Dara knows what institutions can do to people who ask the wrong questions.
She also knows what happens when nobody writes the answers down.
THE EXIT INTERVIEW is a tightly constructed medical thriller about healthcare fraud, whistleblower retaliation, and the dangerous gap between what happened and what the official record says happened.
