The Issue

The Boone Hospital Board of Trustees is considering partnering with MU Health Care and abandoning the 29 year relationship with BJC.

This must not be allowed to happen!

Where there is no choice, there is no competition, and the patients WILL suffer. This move will eliminate choice in Columbia for Health Care. 

Please sign this petition to let the Board of Trustees know we are against this move!
