Chickasha - Over the past few years, more that $25,000,000 has been added to the health
care services at Grady Memorial Hospital and Five Oaks Medical Group for the people we
serve. These projects have included one of the most modern emergency centers in the state,
a new medical office building for outpatient services, new equipment in laboratory and areas
of radiology, along with other upgrades throughout the hospital.

Grady Memorial Hospital remains one of the most progressive hospitals in rural Oklahoma.
As a not-for-profit service organization, 100% of our resources are reinvested in the hospital
and its services. No investor/owners get to pull money out for their own enrichment.

Each year the Hospital spends from one to three million dollars in facility and equipment
improvements. All of these improvements are paid for with operating revenue and reserves.
Currently, no revenue or subsidy comes to GMH from the State, County or City. “Our earnings
all return to the citizens of Grady County through improved facilities and services,” said Mike
Nunamaker, CEO. “I am especially pleased with the progress we make each year with the
improvement of facilities and services.”

The past few years have been especially rewarding with opening of the radiology department’s
fully digital Women’s Imaging Center. This center places the Hospital facility at the forefront of
technologically advanced digital mammography with the newest and most advanced equipment
available in Oklahoma. In addition to dramatically superior diagnostic imaging results, the
process is much more comfortable than other types of equipment.

Five Oaks Medical Group continues to grow and includes three family medicine doctors, two
internal medicine doctors, two general surgeons, two orthopaedic and sports medicine
surgeons, two obstetric/gynecologists, a pediatrician, a podiatrist, three physician assistants
and consulting and part time physicians in ophthalmology, oncology, urology, and
otorhinolaryngology (ENT). Five Oaks has brought together a great team of specialists who
stand ready to care for all who need their care. Supporting these physicians and patients are
a full time pathologist, radiologists and emergency medicine physicians.

Each year, the staff, physicians, and board engage in extensive strategic planning in an effort to
anticipate and plan for meeting the continuing health care needs of those we serve. Each new
service and each improvement is approached with considerable forethought and planning.

Patient service departments at Five Oaks and Grady Memorial Hospital include one of the most
advanced laboratories in the state; a state of the art radiology center with MRI, Cat Scan,
ultrasound, nuclear medicine, digital mammography, fluoroscopy suite, and x-ray; a certified
diabetes education center; physical therapy, respiratory therapy; outpatient surgery center;
intensive care unit; obstetrics services; and inpatient nursing care; sleep study laboratory;
home oxygen and medical equipment; and nutrition counseling among others.

In 2009, GMH and Five Oaks are expected to generate just over 42 million dollars in net revenue
for care given. About 40 % of this income comes from patients who live outside Grady County
but choose to come here for their care. Out of this income, the Hospital and Five Oaks pay out
more than 21 million dollars in salary and benefits to more than 500 employees.

These funds provide a significant impact on the Chickasha and Grady County economy. It is
estimated that salary dollars exchange hand three times in buying goods and services before
leaving a community. A study completed by economists at Oklahoma State University estimated
that Grady Memorial and Five Oaks have a $61 million dollar annual impact on our local
community in addition to providing invaluable health care services.
