[QUOTE="Lapper, post: 294983, member: 233"] I have worked in the healthcare industry in one capacity or another for most of the past 25 years. There is a very real phenomenon that people refer to as the “Mayo effect”. It basically means, if I can get it done locally, it can’t possibly be very good. I first heard it from the CEO of a hospital in Western Nebeaska. It was a great facility with wonderful providers and had great numbers from all the official healthcare groups. But Denver was 3 hours away and this CEO figured several million dollars a year of care was going there because people thought it would be better. Same thing here, Minot people say their local care is awful, better go to Bismarck. Bismarck people flee to Fargo or Minneapolis and those folks flee to Mayo. It’s pretty fascinating in how I have seen it everywhere I go. [/QUOTE]
