Looming crisis in health care in Nebraska. (Kearney Hub, 4/1/2019)
The decline of rural hospitals has been a slow-moving train wreck. It now is accelerating. Since 2010, 102 rural hospitals have closed. As bad as that may seem, things are likely to get much worse, and soon. Currently, 46 percent of rural hospitals nationally operate at a loss, compared to 44 percent in 2018 and 40 percent in 2017. Due to financial strains, nearly 700 rural hospitals are financially vulnerable and at high risk of closure, representing more than one-third of rural hospitals in the U.S.
