What that is is a reduction in the quality of care. No it's not, not as long as the reduction in facilities is in proportion to the reduction in clients. You keep repeating your assertion but you haven't offered a case to back it up. But if one of those were lost a place to care for sick patients, to provide ER services, etc., then the quality of patient care would suffer. Show me the breadcrumbs. I can't get there on my own. The only way closing a hospital reduces quality of care in the face of reduced clientele is if it's the only hospital in the area, seems to me.
