Expands Presence in the Greater Tri-City Area 

Since 1985, Holdenville General Hospital has received the .01 cent sales tax from the City of Holdenville.   When we shop locally, the tax generates $48 to $50 thousand dollars, per month for the hospital.  Last year, the annual tax accounted for over $500,000. Those who live in the city limits and are eligible to vote are encouraged to shop local and vote to CONTINUE this tax for the support of the hospital. Healthcare, especially a hospital, plays a vital role in local economies.
