What’s wrong with the American Health Care System in One Anecdote

So I’ve been up in Vermont dealing with a (major but not dire) in law’s health crisis.  This has taken me to the local hospital on a few occasions.

• When you pull up, there are a series of spaces marked “visitors and patients.”  They are about 150 yards from the front door.
• After you park, you walk to the front door past spaces “Reserved For Doctors Only.”  They are about 50 yards away.
• What kind of business puts its employee’s parking spaces closer to the door than the customer’s?  Sort’ve a quasi soviet one?  Yup.
