Ohio House OKs indigent care hospital assessment plan
The Ohio House approved a plan to require about 200 hospitals to pay 0.5 percent of total costs to fund an indigent care pool aimed at attracting 40 million dollars in federal money. The fund would allocate seventy two million dollars to hospitals based on services to Medicaid recipients, with 31 hospitals potentially losing money but protected by a 2.5 million stopgap. Opponents call it a tax and worry about charity status implications. The measure moves to the Senate.

Lakeland Center drops UDAG request in expansion plan
Lorain County Lakeland Medical Center will not pursue a 500000 UDAG grant for a 3 million expansion. Officials will proceed with conventional financing, aiming to speed construction. The move follows federal rules that UDAGs require exhaustion of other funds and may render the project ineligible if alternative funding is found.

Gun wielding Cleveland woman given life sentence in murder case
Catherine Hammond, 69, already using a cane for heart condition, received life in prison after a Cuyahoga County jury found her guilty of aggravated murder for fatally shooting neighbor Harry J. Durrah, 36, on June 15, 1987. Hammond had been known to carry a .38 revolver and fire shots into the air to scatter children. The jury also added a three year term for using a gun in the crime. Durrah’s widow condemned the verdict as too lenient.
