Four local firms bidding for Ohio hospital

By Geert De Lombaerde Posted on August 31, 2009 at 3:14 pm

After rejecting previous bids from LifePoint Hospitals and Quorum earlier this summer, the board of Brown County General Hospital east of Cincinnati has now received four purchase or lease offers — all from Nashville-area players. LifePoint and QHR — a Community Health Systems division — are still in the mix and have been joined by Essent Healthcare and management firm Brim Healthcare.

Earlier this year, CHS and fellow locals Capella Healthcare had indicated an interest in taking over the 60-bed hospital.
