Unfortunately, this is one of the by products of treating healthcare as a “business”.Burned out healthcare providers(doctors and nurses, RTs, PAs) small hospitals outcompeted then left and more healthcare deserts created in rural communities. So sad.
IU seems to keep growing, mmmm.
I’m not sure of the net effect this will have on the availability of health care in central Indiana, but with my recent forays into the healthcare system, I have noticed a distinct trend. A number my doctors will have office hours on one side of the city half the week and then somewhere else the other half of the week. This is true for at least 4 of the specialists I see.
If health care costs are out of control, it’s because I am paying for two offices for almost every physician. Closing a few offices doesn’t seem like that big of deal, especially when I know that there is so much redundancy in physician offices.
Real estate is cheap. Labor is expensive. Loss of access to care is not about where you go, but who you see.
So what you are saying is that you are okay with your doctor’s office closing near your house so you can drive to the other side of town to see your doctor? Most people are not willing to do this which is why your physician has multiple locations throughout the Indy metro area.
I have noticed the same thing. My hope would be that they have colleagues doing the same thing on the opposite days as others to keep the buildings fully utilized. However, with a medical building popping up on every corner the past few years, I’m not sure the buildings and equipment are being used at a near-full capacity.
The closing of some of the more remote offices is a huge issue for people who already travel a good way to those current offices, or if the closing of those satellite locations means they will be too far from appropriate medical care. It does make a difference to many.
