OCH Regional Lease To Be Discussed

STARKVILLE, Miss. (AP) – The Oktibbeha County Board of Supervisors meets Aug. 5 to discuss a 50-year lease proposal for OCH Regional Medical Center by Capella Healthcare.

The Franklin, Tenn.-based company originally inquired about the status of OCH in an April 23 letter to board members. How much the company is offering the county has not been made public.

Board of Supervisors President Orlando Trainer says he wanted to give board members time to analyze Capella’s letter so the board can move forward with the offer next month.

Cappella Healthcare was founded eight years ago and now operates 14 hospitals in six states.

The Oktibbeha County hospital employs 600.
