Magee, Miss.-based Pioneer Health Services, which owns hospitals in Georgia, North Carolina, Mississippi, Tennessee and Virginia, will close its primary care clinic in Oneida, Tenn., on June 24, according to the Independent Herald.
The clinic was opened by Pioneer Community Hospital of Scott last year. PHS, which filed for bankruptcy in April, has notified the State of Tennessee it could close Pioneer Community Hospital of Scott as soon as June 26.
Hospital CEO Tony Taylor previously told the Independent Herald that the hospital will not close as long as it operates in the black. However, sources have told the publication that PHS will close the hospital if it cannot find a buyer for the facility.
