The president of the sixth-largest employer in Columbia/Boone County has signed a non-disclosure agreement (NDA) with Audrain County officials.
The NDA involves a feasibility study to look at providing health care in Audrain County. New Boone Health chief executive officer Brady Dubois will join host Fred Parry in-studio for the hour tomorrow (Saturday) morning at 7 on 939 the Eagle’s “CEO Roundtable.” Boone Health says the NDA’s purpose is to allow for a full review of hospital service needs for Audrain County and the co-development of a master health plan to meet the needs of residents and businesses in Audrain County. Noble Health closed the doors on the Mexico hospital more than two years ago.
Mr. Dubois is also expected to provide an update on-air Saturday about the creation of a network of Boone-affiliated physicians in the market.
Boone Health is the sixth-largest employer in Columbia/Boone County, according to 2024 numbers from Columbia Regional Economic Development Incorporated (REDI). REDI says they have 1,581 employees.
