Bamaman1Hall of Famer

Vanderbilt ought to have plenty of space for insured patients in the future. They have chosen not to participate in O'Bamacare's Exchange. The State of Tennessee also refused to run an Exchange (like Alabama refused.)

That means that Vanderbilt facilities will be off limit to O'Bamacare patients--inpatient and outpatient. The 1200 physicians in their system will also not see those patients.

You're right about Vanderbilt's quality being very high in many areas. Their cancer and Parkinson's clinics are just about as good as it gets.

I've already told my wife that if I'm ever LifeFlight'd, tell'em to fly the chopper 7 minutes longer and take me to Vanderbilt's Emergency Room. Their E-Room is world famous as the best.

And I want to avoid Huntsville Hospital in every way after the way they've tried to takeover healthcare in North Alabama without buying the hospitals. I don't believe in medical management contracts.
