Bell leaders hired a consultant in October to aid in its hunt for a partner organization.

Once the acquisition is complete, expected within 60 to 90 days, Bell Hospital, a 25-bed critical access hospital, would operate as a for-profit entity and contribute to the local tax base, according to a news release. Michigan’s office of the attorney general must also approve the transaction.
