to be owned by davita or fresenius. >> they have a classic case of a duopoly where they control the market. >> ryan mcdevitt, a professor of economics at duke, is coauthor of a new study on dialysis industry and says the lack of competition he fears is leading to poor quality care. >> it's a pure volume business, the way it's set up right now. >> and in more than 2500 cities, the choice for patients is now down to a single option. often it's either fresenius or davita. >> get as many patients as possible, giving them cookie cutter treatment at a very low cost. >> with more than half a million americans on dialysis, it's a booming business. some patients have private insurance, but most have to rely on medicare, costing taxpayers about $40 billion a year. >> we don't have competition, which means there's no discipline on these firms to deliver higher quality care at a lower cost. turn around, please.

>> and then there's that strange case in indiana in letters and phone calls to cbs. doctor obua described his frustration with dialysis industry, which he believes is profiting at the expense of patient care. obua is facing attempted murder charges and has pleaded not guilty. vigo county prosecutor terry modesitt says there's no evidence that the victim was harming patients, and says there is never any justification for violence. >> if yu've got a problem in any way with the system or anything else, you know we have attorney generals, we have secretary of states. you can file a complaints with, but it's never justified to take the law, you know, in your own hands. >> and it's important to hear from the companies. the two biggest for profit companies, davita and fresenius, declined to speak with us on camera. but in statements, both say they deliver high quality care. davita says it takes every

concern seriously and to mischaracterize such anomalies puts patient well-being at risk. fresenius told us that its ability to innovate for the betterment of people living with kidney disease far outpaces the industry. >> that was erin moriarty on the case. cbs

a process failure. so really, what we needed here was a design change or a better process. >> when the 737 max was being manufactured, boeing removed that door panel to make repairs to rivets nearby, paperwork that would have triggered additional inspections was never created, and the panel was reinstalled without the bolts. the team that did the work had never opened that kind of door panel before. >> all f a sudden, just this huge bang happened. it sounded like a firework going off, like right in your ears, just like so loud. and then a white cloud went through the plane and the mast dropped down. >> shandy brewer was sitting in row ten that night, an experience that stuck with her. >> as soon as i step onto an airplane, tears start pouring down my face. every single time. i haven't been on a flight where that doesn't happen. >> do you feel that boeing airplanes are safe for americans to fly on today? >> i do feel like boeing airplanes are safe. i fly on boeing airplanes all the time. could they improve safety? sure.

how hot is it on the tarmac? well, at southwest airlines, cans of soda were literally exploding before they could be loaded onto the planes. kris van cleave has the story. >> the airlines know how to deal with high heat. the biggest challenge is how to keep their people cool so they limit how long they're outside, because you're not only getting the heat from the sun, you're getting it radiating off the ground. but these bursting cans came as a bit of a surprise. southwest now has a multimillion dollar solution for southwest airlines ground crews. every flight is about beating the clock, but as the temperature in phoenix soars to over 110 this summer, it also becomes about beating the unrelenting heat you dread. those july, august, those really hot days. >> i have to be. i have to be honest, i dread it a bit. yeah, for sure. >> john rawlings has worked the ramp for the last six summers. >> stay hydrated and stay covered. stay out of the sun. >> southwest deploys roving

ocean. >> if you're near the water and you can get get an escape from it for a little bit, and the breeze, i think it's manageable. >> so this is one way to beat the heat. >> absolutely. water. >> temperatures here will hit the mid 90s. today we spoke with sergeant of ocean city's beach patrol, jamie falcon about the sweltering heat. when the weather is this hot, what kind of precautions do you and your team take? >> hydration, hydration, hydration. if you're starting to feel thirsty, you've already waited too long. you need to. in this kind of environment, you should be drinking water like it's medicine. >> in paterson, new jersey, five people were hospitalized for dehydration at an outdoor high school graduation. it felt like 111 degrees outside. >> all power is off and there are people who are feeling ill. >> amtrak passengers in baltimore say they were stuck in a tunnel for over an hour without air conditioning. yesterday, the company apologized for the locomotive malfunction and says staff handed out snack packs and bottled water.
