As part of the tax credit agreement, the authority requires the company to maintain operations at the project location for at least eight years. In addition, the company will claim the tax credit on Ohio employee payroll generated at the project location in excess of the company’s baseline payroll at the project location.
The growth is being spurred by a five-hospital new-business opportunity in Kuwait, with one hospital totaling 1,100 beds and the others with approximately 900 beds each.
Due to that increased business, the company is seeking to expand its operations. It has the ability to expand its operations in Los Angeles and state support will help ensure the the project moves forward in Ohio.
