Amid the worst public health crisis in recent memory, hospitals across Wyoming are cutting hours and wages because the money-making services that prop up rural hospitals have to be suspended to save supplies. https://twitter.com/cstribune/status/1248774288687194114

As @IAmNickReynolds reported last week, former WMC doc @SenJohnBarrasso is advocating money go to these hospitals. Some of that money has been shelled out here already — but not enough for a month’s payroll.

While Wyoming hasn’t had the hospital closures seen elsewhere in rural America, many facilities here have very little cash on hand. That precarious situation has worsened significantly now; some facilities have lost 60 percent of their revenue, the hospital association says.
