Three major health systems leave Mississippi Hospital Association
The Mississippi Hospital Association shrinks again as several hospitals dropped out of the state trade organization this week.
Ochsner Health System and North Mississippi Medical Center recently left the association. Merit Health also severed ties, according to multiple media reports.
The exodus began in late April, when the state's largest public hospital, the University of Mississippi Medical Center, left the MHA. Memorial Hospital System in Gulfport, Singing River on the coast, George Health System and Forrest General Hospital followed soon after.
Almost none of the hospital's letters announcing their departure cited a reason beyond doubts with the organization's “leadership.” All of the hospitals' leaders have declined to publicly expand on their decisions.
The separations, however, come on the heels of a major donation from the MHA's political action committee.
The PAC contributed $250,000, its largest donation in history, to Democratic gubernatorial candidate Brandon Presley's campaign just days before UMMC dropped out of the organization, MHA executive director Tim Moore previously confirmed to Mississippi Today.
