I live in Madison, Wisconsin. The biggest health care provider is the UW healthcare system. We have really three hospitals, only three. UW health, Meritor and SSM. But what they allowed is UW health, the biggest [healthcare provider in Madison, Wisconsin] bought Meritor. Now, they still keep Meritor's name out there because they bought it through this convoluted thing. But 80% of meritor is controlled by UW Health. (10:09–10:15)
