JCHC CEO Reports New Equipment Through Foundation

Johnson County Healthcare Center CEO Sean McCallister informed the board of trustees recently that they would be moving forward with the purchase of a new 3D Mammography machine after discussions with the Healthcare Center Foundation.

The plan is to order the new machine in January, and the best case scenario will see it operational by the end of March.

McCallister also reported that the facility had received a $90,000 donation from an estate, earmarked for the Amie Holt Care Center.

A contract with a mobile MRI company has been renegotiated which will save the facility about $10,000 a year in expense.

He has been working on a simple service contract with the Billings Clinic, and has renegotiated a billing intermediary contract and has received better rates than they have had previously.

And a new Operation Room table has been ordered, received and installed.
