• "The younger docs embraced it because they have all the support mechanism around them when they're going through residency," said Slaba, whose hospital joined the network in 2008 with the help of a federal grant. "They get out in this rural community, and they look around and there's nobody around for 60 miles."

• "Fifteen years ago," Linda Soukup said, "this probably would have had a different outcome."
