Now that Pioneer Health Services is cancelling it’s contract with the county, Supervisors must choose between Noble Health Care of St. Louis, Missouri and Trilogy Health Care Solutions of Madison.

The managing companies officially submitted proposals to Choctaw Supervisors today who met in a closed door executive session to select a manager to run their critical access hospital and nursing home. The monday meeting drew community supporters wanting health care to be stabilized in Ackerman and Choctaw County.

“I’m just hoping that they make the correct decision that will help our county. And bring in more jobs, bring in more people who support our county facilities that we do have,” said Penny Lucas/Choctaw County.

Pioneer will leave Choctaw County medical facility July 31st.
