“We determined this direction after carefully considering our strategic goals and identifying objectives that would be best advanced with this form of affiliation,” said Bill Larson, chairman of the board of trustees for CRMC. “Increasing competition, recruiting and retention challenges, decreasing reimbursements from public and private payers and concerns about uncompensated care could make it difficult in the future to remain a viable health system without the benefits of an affiliation with a larger system.”
