In recent weeks, we’ve posted excerpts on this blog (here and here) from comments the UNC Health Care Board of Directors received from Wake County’s citizens about WakeMed’s proposal to purchase Rex Healthcare. Since those blog entries were posted, we’ve received some questions about whether or not they provide a representative sample. The short answer to that question is yes, but to help our blog readers better understand what we have heard from the community, we are posting all of the portal comments we’ve received – more than 1,300 – here.
All names and personal information have been redacted to protect the privacy of the people who spoke out. We also have redacted comments that were considered inflammatory. We still want to know what the people of Wake County think about the partnership between UNC Health Care and Rex Healthcare, so please take a moment to share your views here.
