Many times. Had no insurance. St. Charles is one of the most expensive hospitals in the nations

There are specialists that do not exist in CO and other specialists that have much higher volumes than CO therefore likely to produce a better outcome. Primary care is different matter.

VA always wants to send you to Portland for further treatment or testing.

Couldn't find progressive Cancer Care here in Central Oregon. Traveled to Portland for more appropriate and qualified providers, saving my life and not undergoing a horrific disfiguring outcome here

We have limited access to pediatric specialists in Central Oregon. One of my children lives with multiple AI disorders that have required care unavailable locally.
