My course is Healthcare Law.

Is health care becoming Walmart? Okay, maybe not literally. However, with consolidation of health care facilities, the decline of independent physician practices and the folding in of ancillary services, healthcare is more a business than ever. That is not necessarily a bad thing, as size creates efficiencies to be reflected in lower costs and better outcomes.

How do you view these seismic shifts in the healthcare industry? Are we evolving toward a better industry model?
