Stan, I believe that your financial analysis only looks at the short term impact and not at the long term. The analysis should include where our health services in the County will be in 10, 20 or 30 years and how it will impact the financial wealth and well being of the County. Would choosing UHS over CHS increase the tax base by encouraging businesses and families (including retirees) to stay in or to move to Beaufort County because we had an excellent health care system that delivers high quality healthcare? Analyzing present facts is easy; trying to predict what might happen in the future and do a discounted cash flow is more difficult and requires vision. Needless to say I believe that UHS will do a better job.

I see the financial condition of the state of North Carolina, and I also realize how structurally damaged the state government is, the extent that their policies will have to be remedied, and I just do not see the much larger benefit of being a state sponsored nonprofit.
If this all turns south for the state, as I think it could, one might wonder why we did not see all this coming.
My final analysis is: the 61,000,000.00 difference between the bids is just way too much.
