Moran highlights rural health care to keep Leoti alive
Moran tours Leoti hospital noting current health issues in rural Kansas. He warns that a closed rural hospital forces elderly residents to relocate for care.

He laments losing a local pharmacist and observes the DOCS Who Care program staffing two physicians from Colorado, Utah, and Texas for two week periods.
