I highly recommend everyone to read carefully the facts put on the home page most critical of the figures is that:

- 70% of patients use either medicaide, Medicare or pay out of packet (what they can)

- District 1 is one of the three most unhealthiest but with the highest population

- Primary Care needs exceed local availabity causing people to go out of the area for care

From previous Daily Advance article 68% of insured patients goto VA (Sentara) for care due to lack of primary care Drs locally.

There is really only one choice in this debacle and that is Vident. Sentara does not fhave financial incentive to invest anything into this area when they are already getting the paying patients. Vident on the other hand has nothing but financial incentive to invest in the area to keep thoose patients from leaving. I believe that will mean Vident having to directly hire Primary Care Drs at a loss to keep patients in the local area (firming up north east NC territory).The other offers are not even really viable for various reasons from size of organization to geographic distance (Wake Med mentioned it as a reason for pulling out).
