Statistics from SC DHEC Analysis

I read the entire SC DHEC Project Review Criteria Analysis of the Fort Mill Hospital. Here is some interesting Statistics from the report.

Public Feedback Breakdown:
10,004 supporting Presbyterian
5,753 supporting Carolinas
>5,400 supporting Piedmont
34 directly opposing Piedmont *see full text below
1 directly opposing both Carolinas and Presbyterian

Also received from each applicant:
45 letters of support from independent physicians “significant” letters of support on postcards and duplicated form letters Support also submitted via e-mail

*“The Department directly received thirty-four (34) letters of opposition to Piedmont from the community. This was significant in that most were lengthy and detailed. In contrast, one letter opposing both Carolinas and Presbyterian was received directly by the Department.”

 
Charity Care projections
Facility       Cost in Year 3     % of projected gross

CMC-FM    $12,770,574        6.3%
FMMC        $7,012,201          3%


**Sections 3f and 3g are met equally by Presby and CMC. The analysis continues to say that while they both met equally, noted that Presby “has the most generous charity care policy.”
