    Posted May 18, 2011

    NEW YORK (MainStreet) — Emergency rooms in cities across the country are closing their doors, according to a new report published in this week’s Journal of the American Medical Association that found that between 1990 and 2009, the number of hospital emergency departments in non-rural areas in the U.S. declined by nearly 30%.
