Hospital system working toward 'long-term partnership' after management agreement
By
MOUNTAIN HOME, Ark. (KAIT) - A north Arkansas hospital hopes to help another hospital system keep its doors open.
A few weeks back, Baxter Health signed a management agreement with the Fulton County Hospital System.
Fulton County Judge Kenneth Crow said the agreement was necessary, as it was only a matter of time until the county hospital would be forced to close its doors.
American Rescue Plan Funds enabled Baxter Health the opportunity to assist Fulton County.
