ScenarioYou are the CFO of a rural hospital. During a recent review of the organization’s
financial status, the hospital was deemed “at risk” for closure. Several factors contribute to
the at-risk designation, including the state’s decision to opt-out of the Medicaid expansion

reimbursement from Medicare. These challenges have resulted in rural facility closures

underperforming in several key financial areas.InstructionsIn a written proposal to the

status.Recommend a course of action and the implications that those actions will have for
patients, providers, and investors (i.e., how might closure affect the community or how
might new service offerings, such as midwife services, improve profitability). Rubric -Clear
