Hospital Debt Burden Forces Cash Strain and Borrowing
Crouse Memorial Hospital faces about six million dollars in annual debt service, boosted by long term borrowings from the 1980s and 1990s to fund costly specialty care centers like neonatal and cardiac facilities. Changes in Medicare reimbursement in 1997 intensified the cash crunch, leaving the hospital dependent on new borrowing to finance core safety net services and expansions.

Rise in cardiac arrest deaths among young adults
SAN ANTONIO federal officials report a surprising rise in death rates from cardiac arrest among Americans aged 15 to 34 in the 1990s. From 1989 to 1998 fatal cases increased from 2,710 to 3,000 nationally, with a threefold faster rise in women and higher increases among blacks. Experts cite obesity smoking and drug abuse, especially cocaine, as possible factors while noting the exact triggers in youth remain unclear.
