Local hospital to return to taxing district

Wednesday, February 10, 2016

St. Luke's Elmore Medical Center in Mountain Home will return to the local taxing district as part of a settlement that resolves an investigation from the Idaho attorney general's office and St. Luke's Health System in the Treasure Valley.

The local hospital as well as one in McCall were included in the investigation in which St. Luke's was accused of violating state law when it received taxing district funds as part of a contractual agreement.

The impact of this week's decision and how it will affect the hospital here will appear in the Feb. 17 edition of the Mountain Home News.
