Hospital color of month stays the same: black

Decatur Daily Democrat:

When a business has total operating revenue of $20,409,965 for the first six months of the year, a figure of $18,127 seems like small potatoes.

But, for Adams Memorial Hospital, that small number was how much the facility was in the black for the month of June — and for the year the hospital has taken in $147,235 more than what has been spent for expenses.

Chief Financial Officer Dane Wheeler noted, "It wasn't a lot, but we were in the black. I'll take that any day as opposed to being in the red."
