<strong>Mountain</strong>s Community Hospital (MCH) is a full-service<br />
hospital with 17 medical/surgical beds and<br />
20 extended care and recovery beds. Physicians<br />
staff the MCH emergency department 24 hours a day.<br />
Inpatient services include acute and extended care, post-acute<br />
care rehabilitation and respite care. In addition to emergency services,<br />
outpatient diagnostic services include pulmonary function,<br />
laboratory, cardiac stress testing and radiology (X-ray, CT, ultrasound,<br />
bone density and mammography). Outpatient rehabilitation<br />
services include physical therapy, occupational therapy and<br />
speech therapy as well a primary care Medi-Cal Rural Clinic.<br />
MCH is Medicare and Medi-Cal certified and licensed by<br />
the State of California. MCH is one of the few small rural hospitals<br />
accredited by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of<br />
Healthcare Organizations. MCH is proud of the quality of<br />
medical care it provides to the community and visitors.<br />
<strong>Mountain</strong>s Community Hospital accepts Medicare, Medi-Cal,<br />
Aetna, IEHP, Blue Cross, Blue Shield, United Healthcare/Pacifi-<br />
Care, CCN, as well as indemnity insurance and workers’ compensation<br />
insurance. In addition the hospital also accepts a number<br />
of HMO and Senior Advantage contracts through cooperation<br />
with the local physicians and the Regal Medical Group.<br />
Physicians contract independently with insurance companies<br />
and, therefore, may not have the same insurance<br />
contracts as the hospital. Because of the many<br />
healthcare insurance options that exist, patients are encouraged<br />
to contact the physician’s office directly to confirm if the<br />
physician is a participating provider in a particular insurance<br />
plan. Although physicians are not MCH employees, the hospital<br />
is proud they chose MCH as a place to practice.<br />
The MCH Auxiliary has been providing volunteers to support<br />
the hospital since 1957. On an annual basis this amounts<br />
to over 11,000 hours.<br />
The <strong>Mountain</strong>s Community Hospital Foundation was incorporated<br />
in 1991 and since that time has raised over $3 million to<br />
support the hospital. The nonprofit 501(c)(3) corporation’s board<br />
is made up of approximately 30 members of the community.<br />
