Dr. Matt Brown presented a two-year contract with Shared Hospital Services Corporation for linen and lending services and said the proposed rates match what is budgeted. Brown told the finance committee the vendor is a nonprofit and Joint Commission–accredited; board members questioned whether the $150,000/year census-driven figure could be adjusted and staff replied they monitor daily linen use to avoid overcharges.
After brief questions about how the vendor handles excess linen and pickup timing, the committee moved, seconded and approved the contract.
