Overview

Mission

To encourage and support a healthier community.

What it reported doing in 2024

The organization operates a critical access hospital and two rural health clinics. The hospital admitted 146 patients that spent 1,354 cumulative days on the acute floor. The emergency department experienced 3,379 visits, 690 surgical procedures, and 352 colonoscopies were performed in our operating suite. The two rural health clinics provided 24,845 visits during this same period.

Operating model

Revenue model
Other-operating. 97% of the money available for current operations came from other operating revenue.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - A large share of available resources goes toward mission work and the filed numbers largely add up. Fundraising costs are high for each dollar raised and total assets are small relative to annual expenses; liquid coverage is unknown.
