“The hospital's mission is to provide access to high quality healthcare to our community. We serve a community that has one of the highest unemployment rates in the state. We employ 85% of the physicians in the community, thus providing adequate access to our community, specifically medicaid eligible patients. We operate 4 rural health clinics, and will have one more operational in 2016, which greatly enhances access to care. We provide a full range of ob services to the community, of which over 60% is medicaid. We also provide wellness and diabetic education services to the community, as well as homecare and hospice, all services that are heavily subsidized. In addition, the hospital also has a ip rehabilitation unit on campus , as well as a wound care clinic. We have started an employee wellness program internally, and plan to work with local employers to offer this service as well. Future plans include offering mental services, and expanding orthopaedics, and adding ent services. Additionally, we are adding resources to help the uninsured navigate the requirements for obtaining insurance coverage for their problems.”
