Board of Supervisors approves $3 million draw for Greenwood Leflore after initial rejection
SUMMARY: Greenwood Leflore Hospital in Mississippi has been approved to receive $3 million in funding after initially being denied $1 million from their line of credit. The Leflore County Board of Supervisors issued a unanimous vote in favor of the funding despite some supervisors previously voting against it. The hospital has been struggling and recently had their request for critical access hospital status rejected by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. In order to qualify, the hospital must be 35 miles away from the next-closest hospital, but it is currently only 28 miles away. The hospital is losing $1 million a month while waiting for approval and expects the funding to cover payroll until they receive critical hospital access designation.
