The project proposal is for new construction of a nursing tower, and remodeling of existing space to -- Accommodate approximately 51 additional medical/surgical beds --Centralize location for ambulatory service programs --Relocate and centralize EEG, EKG, and stress testing services --Increase space for admitting, insurance, and medical records areas A formal letter of intent has been filed with the State of Oregon, and the Certificate of Need application will be submitted this month. A Certificate of Need is required by state and federal Law for any remodeling, construction or equipment acquisition in a health care institution exceeding $150,000. It is estimated the Certificate of Need process will take 30-60 days to complete the review and the required hearings. Following approval, the proposed $8+million project has been given an estimated 18-month to two-year completion schedule. The support of the community served by the hospital is crucial to a successful appli- cation. This support may be registered by written and verbal communications, and by attending hearings. During recent weeks we have had the opportunity to address the needs of the hospital with some community constitutents, including medical staff, the auxiliary, and Meridian Park Medical Foundation Board of Trustees. In these presentations we have discussed the , growth and utilization of the facility as documented by the following statistics: Meridian Park has experienced;:a steady increase in the utilization of facititi.es since �I the first patients were admitted in November, 1973 Total patient admissions (emergency, inpatient and ambuLatory) were 44,595 for the year 1979, or more than,tripled the` 1974' first year total of 14,770. There is an average daily occupancy of 80% or greater 53.1% o£ the time, with occupancy above 90% occurring'40% of that time:' This means an emergency admission only" status exists approximately one-half of the time. At the sametime, Meridian Park Hospital has reduced the average length of stay this past five years from 6.5 to 5.7 days, reflecting a decreased cost to the consumer. Additional cost savings are made available through the hospital's ambulatory and, day ,_. care surgery _programs, which account for an additional 35-38% operating procedures. These` patients are admitted for one-day ire over precedures, and do not requ ; ur or less admission, or approximately one- hospitalization, are charged for a"12-ho half of the overnight stay. C. Edward Skeeters, M.D. , a member of the community and past president of the `MPH Medical- Staff, has stated, "We must consider these statistics and their effect on patient care _ relevant to elective admission and to elective surgery. They point toward total utiii- zztion of the institution'within: the system -- maximum- tinder the current capacity -- which is -a medical and moral justification which lends itself to filing for a Certificate of Need apNLi,.:ci.iuii" In conclusion, we would seek your support in our 'endeavor, and would be pleased to discuss the proposed project with you further. If you, or your organization, would desire additional information, please feel free to contact us. In additon, we would welcome your timely correspondance. Letters should be addressed either to the hospital board of directors, Mr. William B. Webber, chairman, or Carleton G. Lindgren, `adminis- trator, in care of MERIDIAN PARK.
