This is a threat to the community by Good Samaritan Hospital, that if you give us competition we will pull services from the area.

Lets ask the other provider if they are willing to provide the services Good Samaritan will not, then we get two Level II trauma centers.

isn't competition in the market suppose to be good?
Insn't Good Samaritan Hospital suppose to be non Profit? If so whats the problem.

Daily Horoscope for December 16

Cancer

Today's New Moon in your sixth house reminds you not to neglect your health or general well-being. It's the ideal time to arrange a check-up with your doctor or dentist, or to follow up a medical query. Cancerians love yummy food, and the festive season is hardly the best time to start a diet, but you still might want to monitor your calorie intake.
