Description | Doctors, hospital administrators and other medical professionals gave this diagnosis of the health-care system during a meeting Monday with U.S. Sen. Michael Bennet: Too much red tape, not enough incentives for quality care and inadequate information sharing.
Their prescriptions for improvement were made at Mercy Regional Medical Center, where Bennet met with a room full of medical professionals from La Plata and Montezuma counties.
