When recently addressing the county’s support of emergency medical services in the 2022 budget, Scott County Hospital CEO Mark Burnett pointed out to commissioners that he’s requesting an additional $60,000 in next year’s budget. That would boost the county contribution to $260,000, compared to $200,000 this year and $180,000 two years ago. EMS, which covers staff and general operations for the ambulance service, is not a money-maker for the hospital, Burnett points out. “Even with this budget request, it will still operate at about a $27,000 loss,” says Burnett.
