- Michigan rural hospitals are suffering, here’s what happened
Michigan rural hospitals are closing or cutting services, including Sturgis Hospital which shut down after 100 years. Over 200 rural hospitals nationwide have closed or reduced services since 2005, with 11 in Michigan ending labor and delivery since 2010. Financial strain, lower reimbursements for Medicare/Medicaid, and the One Big Beautiful Bill Act’s projected $1 trillion Medicaid cuts are cited as key factors.
