The Alabama Department of Health issued an emergency order to suspend the hospital’s license earlier this week when the facility was unable to meet its payroll. The hospital’s license could be permanently revoked, but Ted Chapin, CEO of Chilton Medical, hopes to provide a financial plan for reopening the facility at a Nov. 8 meeting with the health department.
According to the report, the hospital officials must demonstrate the hospital’s financial problems are solved at the upcoming meeting. Hospital officials believe the solution may be finding a new owner, according to the report.
