Need Patients' Experience with Mayo Clinic. Is it worth it?

Mayo has just changed their patient computer system to one that does monetize procedures according to two doctors I know there. So they appear to have moved away from putting patients first and have joined the rest of the profit motivated system in this country.

Hi @danavetmom2 There is a new national law requiring hospitals to be able to list the costs of each of their procedures and post them electronically. I believe this is part of the effort of the change over to the Epic system at Mayo. That said my local hospital uses Epic as well and they instituted it for its electronic record keeping ability, which as a patient I love! Every note and result is posted in my private account and available to me from home!

I truly believe Mayo continues to put patient care first.
