The Southern Regional Medical CenterThe Southern Regional Medical Center is a nonprofit hospital with 331 beds in Riverdale at clayton county of Georgia. Southern Regional Medical Center is considered as one of the best employers in the Clayton County with over 1,550 employees and physicians. It admits nearly 74,000 patients each year and it is the only comprehensive healthcare facility in that county.  Riverdale is geographically located 12 miles south of Atlanta.In the last two decades, Southern Regional has witnessed a dramatic socioeconomic change in the county which has driven it to a hardship point due to an increasing number of patients not affording to pay for the services they have received there. Clayton was affected the most among all the metro counties due to the recession and the housing bust. Furthermore, new competition and changes in the way medical care is distributed and paid for, has shrunken Southern Regional’s revenues. It has reported annual losses since 2007, each year. In 2014 alone, more than 30% of the hospital’s patient intake was not insured. Southern Regional Medical Center has provided $21 million in care that was not reimbursed by the insurance companies.
Southern Regional Medical Center has had a large amount of care that went unpaid. This continued for several years before the authorities decided to file for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection in mid 2015. The hospital claims it requires funds totaling $6 million to continue its normal operation. This decision came only a week after the Prime Healthcare Foundation, a healthcare system based in California, proposed to the court of the Clayton County that it was interested in buying the hospital.  In their letter to the court, they also guaranteed that they will keep it open and fully functional for a minimum of 5 years. With some of the promises of Prime Healthcare, such as a pledged for $50 million of money to be infused into Southern Regional Medical Center, the hospital is hoped to survive the turmoil.
#6 — A New Era for Southern Regional Medical Center, in the States
As a result of the bankruptcy, Dr. Robert Thompson and his wife have only recently been permitted to reenter the hospital. Though their $40.4 million lease on the hospital was renewed in 2016, the hospital’s contract expired at a price of between $5 million and $10 million and was subsequently terminated a couple of months prior. Thompson received a new lease and now plans to move his company to the state of California this summer.
#7 — A Better Health System, in the States
Dr. Andrew A. Thomas believes that a better health system will result in higher quality of life. The hospital is making significant investment to improve service and, given the low rate of patient deaths, he estimates that it will take another $1 billion to $2 billion to pay off some of that debt. As of 2015, the number of fatal cases on the decline in that country was an average of 7,000 per year, compared to 3,000 cases in 2014.
#8 — The Great Recession Is Tolerating, but The Sick Still Are Still Getting Better
Of the 1.3 million sick people who have been in the hospital in 2014 with serious or potentially life-threatening ailments, the state was responsible for 75 percent of those conditions. But this year, there are still about 400 who are sick, meaning that 40,000 people still are not receiving adequate care. According to 2013 figures from the Ohio State Hospital, more than 1.6 million people may struggle to leave the hospital because of poor medical practice or inadequate treatment. For patients with chronic back and thigh problems, treatment often includes other forms of treatment, such as antibiotics, pain therapy, and radiation therapy. It’s also worth noting that the hospital is also working in close proximity to other states to provide patients with an alternative. In March, it hosted a conference to consider a health savings account model, which would make it possible for patients to save money in states where it’s available. Last month, it sent patients a package which included a small amount of health insurance through the federal Health Care Investment Trust Fund, which would open a new source for the fund to further expand the health system.
#9 — A Better Healthcare System, in the States – New Jersey
New Jersey is one of the wealthiest states in the United States, with an estimated total family income of $90 billion. As of September 2017, the state had about 2,200 Medicaid enrollees, up slightly from the state’s 2,060 in 2011. Since then the number of uninsured has increased, with about 10,000 people losing their Medicaid coverage. New Jersey is also one of the worst-performing in the nation, with its 2,000 largest uninsured people having incomes over $150,000. That’s when the state finally decided to shut down its health care exchange.
#10 — A Better Healthcare System, in the States – California
Before California’s last general election, Dr. Robert Thompson would go on television and give a rant about the state’s Obamacare. He said that California’s health care insurance plan was a scam that made people in the state poorer by “bringing in hundreds of millions of dollars from big corporations, from Wall Street investors
