How Decatur County Memorial Hospital (DCMH) maintains stability to continue supporting its community

“Our intent is to maintain that independence while continuing to deliver high-quality, sustainable care,” says Rex McKinney, FACHE, President & CEO of DCMH.

The challenge, according to McKinney, is that resources can be limited in their rural environment.


Drug costs had escalated by 15% or more each year, making them unsustainable.

Since pharmacy management and 340B compliance require specialized knowledge, McKinney sought out CPS Solutions, LLC (CPS), a partner who could provide the scale of resources available to larger health systems.

“We really liked the company’s team-based approach and the way they tailored their solutions specifically to DCMH’s objectives,” he explains. Best of all, the outcomes have been significant.
