The money
$ thousands · HCRIS cost-report basis · as filed, QA-gated
Ratios tell you how this hospital is doing. Statements tell you what kind of organization it is, and where the money comes from. Every figure below traces to a public cost-report filing, shown as filed. A ratio renders only when every input is reported in the filing; a year missing its core lines is not shown; a year whose balance sheet does not reconcile is labeled. Not audited by Astrelis.

Economic context: 12.7% of county personal income is Medicare/Medicaid medical benefits; 30.0% arrives as government transfers (BEA, 2022).
Method: NCRHW 2016 study of critical access hospitals (IMPLAN Type II), employment × 1.34, earnings × 1.19; output × 2.30 (AHA national, upper bound for rural). This hospital is not a critical access hospital. No published multiplier specific to its type was used, so the CAH ratios are applied unchanged and every multiplied figure here should be read as an upper-bound estimate, not a measurement of this facility. Direct figures are reported values from the facility's HCRIS cost report; multiplied figures are estimates.
