Four in a Row: Cass Health Named a Top 20 Critical Access Hospital

News

April 8th, 2024 by Ric Hanson

Atlantic, IA—For the fourth year in a row, the National Rural Health Association named Cass Health one of the Top 20 Critical Access Hospitals in the country.

“There are 1,361 critical access hospital in America, this places Cass Health in the top 99.7% in the U.S. We can proudly say that we are one of only a handful of hospitals to earn this distinction repeatedly. What gets us to this point each year is data —for quality, outcomes, market share, patient satisfaction, cost, and financial stability. But it’s really the story behind the data that we’re proud of because it’s made possible by our team living our mission of providing superior experiences to everyone that we are privileged to serve, and we are grateful for each one of them,” said Cass Health CEO Brett Altman.

The National Rural Health Association names the Top 20 Critical Access Hospitals from a larger set of Top 100 winners, which is evaluated and produced by The Chartis Center for Rural Health. Recipients are evaluated and identified through the Chartis Rural Hospital Performance INDEX® that utilizes publicly available data to provide a comprehensive comparison of all rural and Critical Access Hospitals. By assessing performance across 36 individual indicators and eight pillars of performance, the INDEX is the foundation for many of rural health care’s most prominent awards and is used by organizations such as the National Rural Health Association in support of its advocacy and legislative initiatives.

An awards ceremony will be held during the National Rural Hospital Association’s Critical Access Hospital Conference this fall.

Update: Cedar Rapids Officer-involved shooting subject identified

News

April 8th, 2024 by Ric Hanson

(Cedar Rapids, Iowa) – While the Iowa D-C-I continues to investigate a shooting by Cedar Rapids police officers that left one man dead and another wounded, authorities with the DCI, today (Monday), said the deceased has been identified as 40-year-old David Vanderhamm, of Cedar Rapids.  A male bystander who was also shot during the incident has been identified and his name and information will not be released at this time.

The involved CRPD officers are scheduled for interviews and they remain on critical incident leave pending the completion of the investigation. The names of the officers will be released upon completion of the interviews and no other information will be released at this time.

As previously reported: Cedar Rapids police were called to a residence on the northeast side around 6:30 Saturday evening on the report of a man who was armed and making homicidal and suicidal statements. Officers found the man (Vanderhamm) and a bystander who had called requesting assistance. Police say [Vanderhamm] had a weapon and he refused commands to drop it, and three officers fired when pointed the weapon at them. [Vanderhamm] died at the scene and the bystander was taken to the hospital with multiple gunshot wounds.

One week out: File for an extension if your federal returns won’t be done

News

April 8th, 2024 by Ric Hanson

(Radio Iowa) – Federal tax returns are due one week from today, and Iowans who think they’re not going to have their forms filled out by then should file for an extension. IRS spokesman Christopher Miller says it’s a simple process.

“By going to our website, irs.gov, and using the Free File system, you just choose whatever software program works best for you, and you’re able to file a request.”

Miller says you don’t even need to give the agency a reason to file for an extension, you can just do it.

“Maybe you don’t have some of the paperwork together,” he says. “Maybe life is just getting in the way and you don’t think you’re going to be able to make that April 15th deadline.”

Miller says the first request you make for an extension is automatically granted.

“It’s easy to file for an extension, and you get an automatic six months,” he says, “and that takes you all the way through October.”

If you owe taxes, be sure to make a payment before next week’s deadline, because Miller reminds — an extension on filing is not an extension on paying.
