The outlined a plan for a bond issue to finance the project and pointed out that if the county backs the loan as requested, there would be no tax money spent on the project unless the hospital fails or becomes unable to pay. They also emphasized that Medicare "pass-through" expenses would cover most of the payments, especially in the first several years.
