This letter will update our proposal dated February 20,
1987, and address the issues we discussed at our meeting on
March 6, 1987 Our understanding of the key issues are as
follows
We will perform the project under the joint funding from,
direction of, and reporting to both the City and County
Of Denton We anticipate that you will continue to be
our primary liasion with those agencies and the Hospital
We will begin the project as soon as possible after
receiving formal City and County approval, but no later
than ten days after those dates Our current
relationship with the City should facilitate contract
development
We have added a task to analyze the Hospital's planned
deficit for the current fiscal year This analysis will
be designed to determine an appropriate amount of funding
this year, by the City and County Assuming these
hospitals' cooperation, our oral report and outline of
findings from this analysis will be available within two
weeks of our start date
Our overall analysis of the Hospital's long-term
"survival potential" will be determined four weeks from
our start date This analysis will consider the
financial implications of three major operating options
current operations with management improvement, leasing
to an outside group, and, closing the Hospital Our
written report from this alternative analysis will also
present advantages and disadvantages of each alternative,
but not offer a recommended course of action We will
discuss our report in one or two readings with selected
representatives from the City and County

I hope this addresses all of the issues We look forward to
starting as soon as possible Please call me with any
questions
Sincerely,
