Overview of Glenn Medical Center

Glenn Medical Center was constructed in 1949 and since that time has served the medical needs of Glenn County and surrounding area residents. The Medical Center is the only acute care hospital in Glenn County and also provides much needed care for travelers on Interstate 5, and visitors to our local and thriving racetrack.

The hospital was operated by Glenn County for many years but in 1995 a decision was made by the Glenn County Board of Supervisors to extend an operating lease of the hospital to Enloe Medical Center in Chico, California. Enloe Medical Center assumed control of the operations of Glenn Medical Center in 1995 and continued this service through June 30, 2006.

During Enloe’s tenure as lessee, Glenn Medical Center like many other small rural acute care hospitals faced severe pressure to keep their facility open. Federal and state reimbursement programs were paying less and less of the amounts needed to even maintain a break-even position. Glenn Medical Center and other small hospitals found themselves having to rely on donations, grants and a somewhat small base of private insurance patients.
