Eviction Plan Denied at Baytown Hospital Board Meeting
James Harrop, veteran Bay town resident and San Jacinto Methodist Hospital board president, denied claims the hospital seeks to oust the Baytown Health Clinic from its basement or use clinic space for federal aid. The board reviewed Houston Post comments, reported no current plan to reclaim clinic space, and said utility payments are stopped and donated to the clinic as a community service. The hospital applied for Hill Burton funds to expand diagnostic and outpatient areas at an estimated $1,460,000, with the outpatient addition to include five emergency rooms, physical therapy, a pharmacy, and multiple exam and observation rooms, expected to start within a month and finish before the convention.
