Tuesday afternoon, June 16, Critical Access Health Services doing business as Washington County Memorial Hospital filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in the United State Bankruptcy Court, Southern District of Indiana located in New Albany. This move has been anticipated for some time by many unsecured creditors along with local financial institutions holding secured positions with the hospital.
According to a news release from the hospital, “This decision will provide the hospital with the ability to continue to operate with no interruption of service, and give the facility time to work with suppliers to achieve financial stability.”
Information contained in a copy of the 150+ page official filing with the bankruptcy court shows that the hospital named three local financial institutions, Regions Bank, First Harrison Bank and Mid-Southern Savings Bank as secured creditors with a total of approximately $7.6 million owed to the banks. In addition, the filing included a “list of creditors holding 20 largest unsecured claims.” The amount owed to those suppliers and organizations totals $1.35 million. The largest of the unsecured debts is for $176,750.73, owed to Amerisource Bergen Drug Corporation of St. Louis and the smallest debt listed is to the American Red Cross of Chicago in the amount of $26,006.39. An Open Records request has been made to the hospital for a complete least of creditors and amounts owed.
