ABOUT THE KLAMATH FALLS INTERCOMMUNITY HOSPITAL AUTHORITY
In 1974, the Council of the City of Klamath Falls held a public hearing on the question of advisability of creating a public authority for the purpose of providing hospital facilities; and deemed it necessary, in the public interest and for the health and general welfare of the community, and for the purpose of increasing hospitla bed capacity, adding new major facilities, categories of medical service and combining medical specialties, supporting a regional health care concept in compatibility with the general health care development in the community, adding to inpatient care and outpatient care, administration, service and support, granting savings to the community as a result of centralization of services and to provide healthcare to the community in a manner which is economically practicable, to help maintain high quality standards which are appropriate to the timely and economic development of adequate and effective health services in the area, the Council determined that it was wise and desirable to create a public hospital facility authority.
