2022 Hospital Transparency Information
Financial and Organizational Information Regarding Our Hospital
One of the key pillars of a vibrant community is access to quality health care. The results of many studies investigating the topic all come to a similar conclusion:
“Healthcare services are important to community and economic development not only in terms of the employment and labor income generated in the local economy, but also to attract and retain business and industry. Quality of life issues that include healthcare access and a robust set of healthcare providers are important factors for a business seeking to relocate its facilities” (RuralHealthInfo.org).
Hospital systems are led by a board comprised of independent, local leaders who are aware of the overall impact that healthcare services have on the community.
At a time when healthcare services are at risk in rural markets, our local board is committed to attract the necessary talent to keep our system as one of the healthiest in the state. Our strength allows us to offer a broad array of quality medical services, while making significant investments back into the community through new infrastructure, millions of dollars of economic impact, and millions of dollars of indigent care for our most vulnerable populations.
The subsequent information provides a detailed report on how the local board governs the hospital system, its administrators, and the medical staff it employs to deliver the lifetime of care our community members want and deserve.
