Ownership

A joint venture between LHP Hospital Group, Inc. (LHP) and the Portneuf Health Care Foundation owns and governs Portneuf Medical Center.

Pursuant to the agreements, Portneuf Health Care Foundation, Inc. owns a minority share of the new joint venture, but governance of Portneuf Medical Center is on a 50-50, “block voting” basis.
