Hocking Valley Hospital Shows Stable Finances Despite Deficit

Logan reports Hocking Valley Community Hospital ended its first ten months with a deficit but a "very stable" overall position. Administrator John Sappington told county commissioners the hospital started from scratch cashwise and has built a $30,000 inventory while carrying $34,000 in old blocked accounts receivable. Slow Medicare payments, insurance paperwork, and a pending $55,179 Medicare claim contribute to cash shortfall, with rate cuts and staff reductions planned to move out of the red.

Hospital Finances Despite Deficit

Sappington outlined steps to move the hospital toward profitability. He cited $117,000 in new accounts receivable, a planned rate increase with higher occupancy, and staff cuts from 125 to 109 to save payroll. He noted current beds are nearly full, urged community support, and warned of strict bill collection. He said Medicare money may arrive and occupancy 30 percent could help break even, with two more years to exit the red.
