Corvallis-based Samaritan Health Services has formally notified its bank that it likely violated its bond terms last year due to losses. While CEO Doug Boysen downplayed the notice, he said the finances in Oregon healthcare appear untenable statewide and it's the system's "duty" to seek growth while considering possibilities such as a merger, outside partner or sale. "All options are on the table," he told The Lund Report. "It’s a really uncertain environment right now and we are looking at all different potential options to make sure that Samaritan is sustainable into the future."
