Bruce Dayton of Franklin urged the committee to oppose the sale of Williamson Medical Center to Ascension Health, citing a recent patient-safety incident in which multiple patients were severely harmed, Ascension's prior EMR disruption and financial losses, and suggesting alternatives such as HCA or a joint operating agreement to preserve local control.
