As Glens Falls Hospital approached its worst two years in recent history, it spent $609,000 on marketing and gave out $1.15 million in bonuses. The spending was outlined in the hospital’s 2016 IRS filing, called a 990 report. Some members of the public have criticized the hospital’s spending on advertising, signage and even insulated travel mugs, given the hospital’s financial condition.
