Could you provide a link to back up this assertion? I just googled it and found a story with the opposite statement from Mayo. I was skeptical that the Mayo Clinic would come out against HCR because groups like the AMA and American Hospital Association have been relatively supportive of the bill (or at least as supportive as interested party advocacy groups can be).

There's been so much bullshit flying around from opponents (and a bit from supporters glossing over the rather substantial omissions and warts in the law), it's hard to know what to think.
