RENNOVA HEALTH COMPLETES PURCHASE OF AN EIGHTY FIVE BED ACUTE CARE HOSPITAL IN JAMESTOWN, TN.
West Palm Beach, Fla., June 01, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Rennova Health, Inc. (OTCQB: RNVA), (OTCQB: RNVAW) (“Rennova” or the “Company”), a vertically integrated provider of industry-leading diagnostics and supportive software solutions to healthcare providers, announced today that it has completed an acquisition of its second hospital by closing the previously reported Asset Purchase Agreement to acquire an eighty five bed acute care hospital, based in Jamestown, Tennessee for approximately $635,000 from Community Health Systems, Inc. Diligence, legal and other costs associated with the acquisition are estimated to be approximately $500,000 meaning the total cost of acquisition to the Company is approximately $1,100,000.
Jamestown TN Medical Center, Inc. is an 85 bed facility of approximately 90,000 square feet on over eight acres of land, which offers a 24-hour Emergency Department with two spacious trauma bays and seven private exam rooms, inpatient and outpatient medical services and a Progressive Care Unit which provides telemetry services. The acquisition also included a separate Physician Practice which will now operate under Rennova as Mountain View Physician Practice, Inc.
Annual revenues in recent years have been approximately $15 million net revenues per annum with government payers including Medicare and Medicaid accounting for in excess of 60% of the payor mix. Rennova does not expect that to change significantly in the near future.
“We believe this acquisition complements our previously purchased hospital in Oneida TN, and the two hospitals located within one hour drive from each other create a number of synergies and efficiencies for services and management” said Seamus Lagan, Chief Executive Officer of Rennova. “We look forward to expanding the needed services we offer these local communities and believe this acquisition increases the opportunity and value for our shareholders”.
