Spectrum releases its assessment of Westlake Regional Hospital The long-awaited report gives a General Summary of the Conditions Assessment and Strategy for the future. A sale of the hospital is precluded for now, heavy debt-to-asset ratio on March 29, 2011 - and County Judge Executive Ann Melton says, that regardless of what may being speculated, a sale of Westlake won't happen on her watch if she can help it.

It also includes a review of salaries paid to healthcare providers at present. -CM Part 1, CM Report on Report: General Summary By Ed Waggener Spectrum Health Partners recently released "Business Assessment of Westlake Regional Hospital, Columbia, KY.

The full 84 page report is now open public record and is available at the hospital.The summary includes the following findings and opinions of Spectrum Health Partners, LLC as of March 29, 2011, verbatim from the report (bold face emphasis by CM):
The report to the media was released following an Attorney General's Opinion on a complaint filed by Sharon Burton, Adair County Community Voice.Next: Part II Provider Salaries This story was posted on 2011-07-26 08:45:45
