Baptist selected as potential buyer for Starkville’s only hospital
SUMMARY: Months after Starkville’s only hospital went up for sale, the Oktibbeha County Board of Supervisors has selected Baptist Memorial Health Care as the potential buyer of Oktibbeha County Hospital (OCH) Regional Medical Center. The decision follows discussions with stakeholders, including Mississippi State University and the Greater Starkville Development Partnership. The county government, which has controlled OCH since 1973, determined that selling the hospital was necessary due to financial challenges and residents seeking care at other hospitals. The sale is expected to finalize by summer or early fall. Baptist Memorial Health Care, based in Memphis, owns multiple hospitals in Mississippi.
