There are plenty of large metro areas across the country with good medical care. There are a lot of rural areas with limited access to good medical care. Access to good medical care is not an issue for many people. But some of us "win" the health crisis lottery and need advanced medical care. There are many people who are injured or die each year due to adverse medical events. Those adverse medical events can happen in a "good" hospital, but I suspect that they are more likely in a "bad" hospital.Oh brother!
Haven't seen any "refugees" complaining about their exit from MA yet here on the board. Seems they're all pretty satisfied with their moves.....actually quite happy about it.
I hear the "medical care" excuse all the time. Isn't it amazing that the vast majority of the population of this country lives outside and away from of the northeast and thrives, generation to generation with great medical care?
We plan to move to southern NH this fall. We will still be close enough to the Boston hospitals if needed.
I certainly understand that other people have different priorities. That's fine. I don't denigrate other's priorities.
