The Business Value of an
Exceptional Hospital

The highest use of capital is not to make more money but to make money do more for the betterment of life.- Henry Ford

What is an exceptional hospital in the community worth to you and your business?

A lot. Having a top-flight hospital in the community has important economic and non-economic effects on your business.

• It helps you attract and retain the kind of executives and other employees who will make your business prosper
• It lets you recruit and retain more effectively, because access to excellent hospital care is a concern for almost everyone, without regard to their health status
• It helps present an image of your company as one that has opted for a community which cares about healthcare
• It improves the health of your employees, increasing productivity and in some cases saving their lives
• It creates employment for a substantial number of people, all of whom spend their salaries locally for goods and services that may be produced, distributed, or sold by your business. The estimated annual economic impact of Tri-City Medical Center is more than $450 million.
• It attracts superior physicians, nurses, and technicians who can choose to practice anywhere, and will opt for a hospital where they know there is a strong commitment to excellence, growth, and optimal outcomes

The business community supports the hospital through membership in the Foundation's Corporate Council, which provides a unique opportunity to meet with the hospital's senior executives, and provide input on how the hospital can better serve your business and your community.
