Hospital revenues down, but confidence high

    HARLAN -- Myrtue Medical Center Trustees in an October meeting heard their CPA tout that MMC had another very good year of operations which ended on June 30, and that over the past 15 years they have had an amazing consistency in operations.    
    But five months later, finances have changed and MMC is looking at a variety of options to handle a revenue dip that as of Nov. 30 showed a net income loss of $597,389.
    Myrtue CFO, Kristy Hansen, told the board on Monday that last year was a “great year” but this year has been “fairly slow, and they are working daily to curtail losses and reduce expenses.”
