Mayo Clinic Health System in Albert Lea and Austin will hold community health care forums at 5:30 p.m. Monday, Oct. 27 at Austin’s Paramount Theatre, and Tuesday, Oct. 28 at Albert Lea’s Marion Ross Performing Arts Center.

Join Mayo Clinic Health System in Albert Lea and Austin’s CEO Mark Ciota, M.D., and Chief Administrative Officer Steve Waldhoff for a discussion on coming innovations designed to make it easier to get the care you need when you need it.

“We want to continue to share with you information about new care choices available to you locally through standardization and collaborations,” says Dr. Ciota. “Just as importantly, we want to hear from you with your concerns and questions. With the numerous challenges facing the health care industry, leaders across the country are redefining, realigning, and retooling organizations so they can meet the ongoing needs of patients. And that’s exactly what we are doing in Albert Lea and Austin as well.”

A question and answer period will follow the presentation. Questions can be submitted online ahead of time by going to mayoclinichealthsystem.org, clicking on Albert Lea or Austin, and Classes and Events, or come prepared with questions.
