Grow the Company
Expand existing hospitals
- In selected markets that need additional facilities
- In Tucson, a strategic priority
Develop de novo hospitals in high growth emerging markets
- In sole provider communities with additional facility needs
- In communities with no facility at all
Acquire hospitals on a selective basis
- Independents in need of sophisticated management
- Potential acquisitions or leases from HCA
- No further acquisitions planned for 2001 (other than SouthCrest)
