Quincy, IL – Maureen Kahn, CEO of Blessing Hospital, is issuing the following statement on the Illinois Health Facilities and Services Review Board’s decision on the Certification of Need (CON) application from Quincy Medical Group.
"Tonight, the Health Facilities Services Review Board made the decision to approve QMG’s CON request for a new surgical center to be located at the Quincy Mall by a vote of 5-2, with five affirmative votes being required for approval.
