Mahaska Health Financial Review
From Mahaska Health/Seim Johnson
OSKALOOSA, I.A., 2022 – Mahaska Health is dedicated to the health and wellness of our patients and our role in the communities we serve by improving the health outcomes of patients and families. For the public record, the accounting firm, Seim Johnson, LLP has completed audit reports, since 2019, for Mahaska County Hospital (d/b/a Mahaska Health Partnership) and presents the results to the Hospital Board of Trustees & Leadership Team. Financials are presented and discussed at each monthly board meeting.
David Langkamp, President, Board of Trustees of Mahaska Health, shared, “We continued to invest in our employees, providers, and caregivers, building on preventative care, annual wellness visits, expanding services in Cancer Care, Obstetrics, Pain Management, Rheumatology, Neurology, our patient portal, and telehealth programs. We are able to fulfill our commitment to our employees and community by expanding services and posting strong financial results to further invest in the care of Oskaloosa residents and our local communities.”
Daris Rosencrance, CFO, shared, “For FY 2022, we are on pace to continue the positive financial trend that was started in FY 2018. This positions us strongly to be able to continue to invest in our people and our local communities. Critical Access Hospitals like Mahaska Health are vital to rural areas throughout the state of Iowa and the nation. These hospitals provide the care needed locally to the communities we serve, reducing travel for care at larger, urban facilities and reducing the likelihood someone may not seek care due to traveling.”
Mahaska Health’s financial results, and therefore, its year-to-date results, have significantly increased due to our providers and caregivers taking care of patients and opening up access to our clinics and services. Net operating revenue in FY 2022, was $2.7 million with FY 2023, projected at $7.5 million.
