Lawrence Memorial Hospital seeks freedom to operate outside city
Lawrence Memorial Hospital officials will ask the city commission Tuesday for permission to run medical clinics outside Lawrence. President and CEO Gene Meyer says flexibility is essential in a changing health industry and the charter ordinance would lift Kansas limits. The move would not create a large system but help independence and competitiveness while pursuing outside opportunities if economically and mission-advancing.
