2014 REPORT
TO T H E C O M M U N I T Y
At Logan Memorial
Hospital, our goal is to deliver
Jim Bills, CEO
Logan Memorial
Hospital
the best healthcare available to the
residents of South Central Kentucky,
as we seek to make our community
healthier. With the help of dedicated
physicians, employees, volunteers
and board members, along with
your support and encouragement,
we continue our passionate pursuit
of excellence.
Delivering quality healthcare close
to home is the single most important contribution we make. But
there are many other ways we make a positive impact on the
communities we serve. Here are a few of the ways we are
making a difference.
Nearly $1.5 million in capital improvements
In 2014, we made a number of quality improvements for
our facility investing $400,000 to install new telemetry
equipment in ER, ICU, and our inpatient care areas. We
also invested $430,000 to complete our chiller replacement
project and $194,000 in new imaging equipment.
In fact, we invested nearly $1.5 million in our facilities last
year which included technology replacement, information
technology additions/updates and important facility upkeep
and maintenance.
Contributing to our local tax base
Last year, Logan Memorial Hospital paid $769,605 in taxes which
helped support our city, county and state. This included sales taxes as
well as property taxes. These dollars help maintain local schools, fund
the development of roads, recruit business and industry, and provide
other similar services vital to support and sustain a thriving economy.
Helping those in need
Logan Memorial Hospital is committed to ensuring the delivery of
needed healthcare to all members of the community, regardless of
ability to pay. Last year the cost to Logan Memorial Hospital was
more than $400,000 to provide services for those without the ability
to pay for their care.
Adding new physicians
During the past year, Logan Memorial Hospital added eight new physicians to our medical staff, including specialists in emergency medicine,
nephrology, podiatry and radiology. Logan Memorial Hospital has also
partnered with Team Health to provide quality physicians 24/7 in our
Emergency Department.
One of our community’s major employers
With an annual payroll of $11,165,465 and an average of 231 employees, Logan Memorial Hospital is one of the largest employers in the
region. This means that our staff and family members attend many of
the same schools, shop at the same stores and volunteer their time
and resources for the same organizations as you do.
We thank you for choosing us for your healthcare needs. With your
support, we can continue making our community healthier.
