Rio Blanco Herald Times: The Eastern Rio Blanco County Health Service District (Pioneers Medical Center) Hospital Board held its monthly public meeting last Tuesday, with all board members present.

The boardroom was filled with community members seeking answers, as well as some current medical staff showing support for the administration at Pioneers Medical Center.

The meeting began with Board President Mark Schryver informing attendees they could not sit in on the monthly financials meeting, which some community members identified as a violation of Colorado’s Sunshine Laws. After attendees were allowed back into the meeting room, Board President
Mark Schryver explained the January financial report and justified the decision to keep the
financial meeting private, stating that the financial meetings are not public due to the complexity of
discussions, which often involve insurance details and outstanding payments.
