Gray letter: Monopolized health care system

I retired in Jerome. Mostly it is a good place for me to end up. The problem with the area is a monopolized health care system.

There is tremendous growth in the area; i.e., the expansion of Chobani, Clif Bar setting up shop, and the new innovation center of Glanbia. It seems to me there is plenty of room for a competitive hospital system. We, in the Magic Valley, really need a choice for health care. Isn’t there anyone out there interested in this situation?
