Community-Owned Healthcare - A New Way? Chippewa Valley Health Cooperative

Robert Krause

Are there alternatives to the expensive, complicated, healthcare system in the US? After the closing of the Sacred Heart and Saint Joseph's hospitals in Eau Claire & Chippewa Falls, we're about to enter into a promising experiment in community ownership with the Chippewa Valley Health Cooperative. Organizing board chair, Robert (Bob) Krause shares the plans for a new community-owned independent hospital and healthcare services. Bob has a long history of community service and corporate management, including the 10 years he spent on the board of Sacred Heart Hospital.

Past/present religious/spiritual influences: Catholic
