April 2022 Marks, MS
In April 2022, Enhanced Capital provided capital to the newly reopened Quitman Community Hospital, a designated Critical Access Hospital, designed to advance high-quality healthcare access in rural communities in Mississippi. The financing will help bring back the largest employer in the county and provide Quitman County residents with access to critical care for the first time in five years after many rural Mississippi hospitals, including Quitman, closed due to financial difficulties. The reopened minority-owned hospital managed by Progressive Medical Enterprise LLC has more than doubled its number of hospital beds, offers 24-hour emergency medical services, and created over 30 jobs. This investment will significantly impact job growth and healthcare outcomes in a 75% Black, severely impoverished Mississippi county.
