Trustees Ponder Proposal Linking County Hospital Ownership
Southern Nevada Memorial Hospital trustees studied a plan to have county ownership of a $5 million Medicare facility at no tax cost. Private investors would build the 250 bed facility and lease it to the county for 20 years at $2.74 per bed daily, then transfer ownership. The county would care for geriatric patients at $9 daily, saving the hospital $6 per patient, while transferring some 100 daily to other centers at $15 per day. No action was taken as further review and an outside survey were discussed plus staff appointments were approved.
