Re: Which number.
The “60% elective procedures” number.
Hard to believe that 60% of Mayo’s patients are having breast enhancements, hernia repairs, or achy knee surgery.
If you really needed a knee replacement, I doubt you would call it ‘achy knee’ surgery.
Hernia repairs are no joke either. I hope you never get one.
Breast enhancements are not their thing. Geesh!
Are you 12 years old?
The elective procedures include a wider variety then that. Just a comprehensive physical evaluation or sleep study is extremely expensive. But regardless of the category, their income is actually pretty reduced in this fiasco not to mention losses on their portfolio.
