Summary
At its July 16, 2002 meeting, the Rural Health Center board reviewed a $60,000–$75,000 projected 2003 budget gap, the limits of qualifying as a Federally Qualified Health Center, and the implications for the new facility. The consultant’s data counted 2,600 patient visits in 2001, 85% by permanent residents.
Evidence limits
The newspaper account reports a board discussion and consultant findings, not audited financial statements, a federal determination, or a final building decision.
