Why Give to Milton Hospital?
The Milton Hospital Development Fund, made possible through generous
philanthropic support, enables Milton Hospital to provide high
quality, community-based healthcare with compassion, dignity and
respect.
With the current state of healthcare economics in Massachusetts,
most hospitals are challenged to raise funds for expanding and
enhancing programs to keep pace with community needs. Milton Hospital
is no different. The two greatest challenges the hospital faces
are the financial burdens caused by insurance reimbursements that
do not cover the cost of care, and our commitment to providing
"free care" to those who are uninsured or underinsured. As such,
resources are dedicated to the most immediate needs. Philanthropic
support is critical to our ability to expand and enhance programming
to keep pace with advancements in patient care.
Members of the Milton Hospital Development Fund Board are responsible
for furthering the fund's mission of raising philanthropic support
for the hospital. They are members of the community fully vested
in the charitable mission of Milton Hospital who call on you to
support health care in our community.
In recent years, philanthropy has helped defer the costs of such
programs as: our Rapid Cardiac Transfer program, a clinically-affiliated
program with Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center; Picture Archiving
Communications System (PACS) which enables radiologists to store,
send and receive x-rays and other digital images electronically;
a 16-slice CT scanner, which produces faster and clearer diagnostic
images; and a computer-aided detection system for mammography.
Your donations do more than simply build an addition, or help
to purchase a new piece of equipment. They preserve the legacy
of accessible healthcare for the next generation.
