Most directly comparable regional peer given geographic overlap and system structure.
• Wooster Community Hospital: Independent community hospital in Wooster, Ohio offering similar scope of acute care, employed physicians, and specialty services. Closely comparable on bed count, non-profit community model, and mid-sized regional footprint.
• Blanchard Valley Health System: Non-profit regional health system in Findlay, Ohio, offering comparable acute care, employed physician group, and multi-specialty services across rural Northwest Ohio. Closely matched on size, structure, and regional community-hospital profile.
• Fisher-Titus Medical Center: Community-based non-profit hospital in Norwalk, Ohio (Huron County), serving a similar Northwest Ohio catchment. Already a regional collaborator on cancer care through UH Seidman, making it a directly comparable community hospital peer.
