>> 40 years in academic medicine and have seen many many patients transferred from community hospitals who have succumbed to the those who for instance don't have the expertise for ERCP,biopsies,transplants,etc.

That is beside the point.

But you should keep in mind that "outcome" is far greater in scope than the tiny little picture you have.

A patient who has been put through the nonsense of big hospitals time and again at some point may begin to feel it just isn't worth it and choose to go untreated. I know I have. If you have to schedule an appointment for a test then come back two weeks later and have another test and a month later and have another, all because the facility doesn't give a shit about patient care because you're a bar code, then it isn't worth it.
