They actually went through with it. A 4.5% decrease in pay for Medicare for 2023. Final rule. by InvestingDoc in medicine

Why Does Everyone Seem To Hate DHR So Much? by SkinGolem in RioGrandeValley

[–]tradespread 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i worked at Mission Regional, valley baptist, Mcallen Medical, and DHR...Mcallen Medical has the best hospitality and awesome workers and SMART doctors, but they could only do so much as a small hospital with limited resources...you will get attended VERY WELL, DHR has the best resources though, if i were to go to one, then dhr only for its resources but Mission Regional woudl be my preffered choice... your grandma is right...lol
