Impressive list. Doctors, board members, trustees. Important points in bold. Easy to read.
If taken in a vacuum, it might truly be a sad but necessary changing of techniques. That doesn't really mean anything. Not a symptom of something more serious. More momentous.
But aren't doctors supposed to look at the totality of circumstances? The body as a whole?
When one sees this action coupled so soon with their care for a critical daycare being shutdown, and pulling back from decades of support for a critical public service such as Meals on Wheels; I can't speak for others - but for me - assurance that everything is fine is hardly the feeling I get.
There's something more behind these actions. It may be innocuous. It may be innocent. But they are not occurring in a vacuum. And people's lives are being negatively impacted in a big way.
This letter does not answer why.
Rather it appears as the corporate version of ignoring why.
In the absence of clarity, people not only wonder what you're hiding, they wonder why you feel the need to hide it.
MWHC operates as a nonprofit which means it pays not a penny of its revenues as local, state or federal tax. In turn it has an obligation to provide roughly equal medical services to its community rather than use tax exempt status to hike the salaries and benefits of its doctors, owners and directors. But how do we the taxpayers know MWHC is living up to its obligations? Surely now is the time to commission an independent accountant familiar with nonprofits to perform an audit of the whole MWHC system.

Again, why?
