Ossian flees the mine once he learns his mother caught a strong form of the influenza virus. Immediately upon his return, he takes her to the regional government medical clinic. The process of seeing a doctor is as follows. All patients must be triaged before seeing a doctor. The lineups ahead of the triage nurse are notorious, one can see an average of 50 people waiting to be triaged. From there, patients can follow one of two paths: if they bribe the triage nurse there is a "fast track option" in an adjacent unlabeled building. If a patient cannot afford the bribe, they must stay in the official system. In both systems patients see doctors one-on-one.
The "bribe" option is well staffed by doctors, an average of 5 doctors are working and 80 per cent of the time they are seeing patients. Fast track patients spend an average of 10 minutes in consultation with a doctor before leaving the clinic.
The "no bribe" option is even more notorious than triage for long waits. They have a large waiting room which can fit up to 100 patients, which on average is 90 per cent full. An average wait before seeing a doctor in the "no bribe" option is 5 hours. In addition, patients in this option spend less time with a doctor once they are seen, an average of 6 minutes. Doctors in this option are overworked, seeing patients 90 per cent of the time they are working.
