Cincinnati-area hospitals, nursing homes and other health providers got nearly $700 million from emergency federal pandemic spending known as the CARES Act. Local hospital leaders say the sector would be in a far deeper hole now without that help.
The new coronavirus pandemic put an unprecedented financial strain on one-sixth of the economy just as humans needed their hospitals the most. In March 2020, to protect the hospitals as they confronted the first surge of COVID-19, Ohio ordered a six-week pause to nonessential surgery and procedures as part of the overall state shutdown.
Use the database below to see the more than 2,000 local hospitals, doctors, nursing homes and other health providers that got the money.
