However, I'd agree that being/looking ostentatious when others are losing their jobs is a sign of low/no class; worse yet, no concern or respect for those that work (or worked) for you.

Mayo Clinic in AZ and FL made the list, but not MN, which seemed odd until reading through their criteria. This week HealthGrades listed their top 50 hospitals, only Mayo in AZ made it. So, just wondering, as institutions push into patient's homes, who will be monitoring the outcomes of their home monitoring and who will determine the medico-legal aspects of the data and the clinical interventions taken (or not taken) based on it. Safe travels, sashes on, and write to us every day. RE: Mayo Clinic one year study on home monitoring reminded me back on Jan 27th Inga gave a link to the HealthGrades top 5%.
