Princeton Community Hospital CEO Daniel Dunmyer told the board that for fiscal year 2001 the hospital wrote off almost $60 million, with more than $34 million in Medicare reductions plus $12.5 million for Medicaid and $12 million for other adjustments. He noted a 50 percent write-off rate for 2001 and warned many hospitals face similar cuts from the Balanced Budget Act.
