Commissioners discussed authorizing Bowie County to provide clinical services for Cass County residents during court session on Nov. 24. Precinct 3 Commissioner Paul Cothren pointed out that the county’s indigent health care officer recently retired and asked commissioner to listen to a possible option that could benefit the county.
In Bowie County it is a calibration between Wadley Regional Medical Center and CHRISTUS St. Michael to provide services to indigent healthcare eligible patients under its charity care policy. They do not bill the county for these services.
