stouffville hospital is one of the first to learn its share of the 200- million onetime bailout fund announced monday by health minister george smitherman while other hospitals are checking the mail see if they are eligible for fund ing in a variety of categories hospital vicepresident lome zon said the min istry has approved 114200 for markham stouffvilles second campus the uxbridge cottage hospital we are a twosite hospital and the funding is for our second campus mr zon said friday to the best of our knowledge this is it although like everyone else we can apply for funds to cover severance payments every little bit helps but were still looking at a 36- million shortfall mondays announcement included 91 million that all of ontarios 159 hos pitals can apply for to cover severance costs the breakdown for the rest of the 200 million is 65 million to reward hospitals who have financial difficulties but are working to become more efficient 5 million to reward balanced- budget hospitals including the most efficient pacesetter hospitals 20 million bridge funding for hos pitals that need significant assistance bringing their budget under control and 19 million for small rural hospitals it is in the last category that markham stouffvilleuxbridge cottage qualified for the 114200 in funding mr zon said service reductions by law hospitals must balance their budgets over two fiscal years giving them until march 2006 to revise their plans markham stouffville has submitted a plan covering the current 36million shortfall but says it will result in sub stantial service reductions meanwhile richmond hills york central hospital and southlake region al health centre in newmarket will be applying for severance funding and are waiting to learn if they are eligible for funds from the 65million for hospitals that are working to become more effi cient york central hospital should qualify president and ceo bruce harber said we sure are in that category we sub mitted a balanced budget plan and the ministry has agreed with how were going to balance over the next 15 months mr harbersaid two or three years ago there was a huge turnover in nursing and we dont want to go back there we want to protect clinical servic es southlake is very close to balancing its budget and is also anticipating some extra assistance from the onetime tran sitional funds announced monday according to ceo dan carriere were basically focused on the 91 million in severance costs and the 65 million to help to reach a balance those are the two areas mr carriere said
