History
In 1945 by the end of World War II a meeting was called to take advantage of the disposal of Hospital Field Units by the War Assets Board and the board decided to convert the Perry County Infirmary into a hospital The old field units equipment would be used in this proposed hospital as well Although many were concerned about the feasibility of opening the plan too far from the center of the Indiana population a group of volunteers eventually explored options for establishing the hospital It was decided that Tell City and Cannelton would be the ideal location for a county hospital and the building site was donated for the proposed hospital by Roy Fenn
The hospital was to be financed roughly by onethird federal Government funding onethird county bonding and onethird donations However its interesting to note that less than 3 of the amount pledged failed to materialize Money obtained from the Federal Government came from the HillBurtonHatch Law and PCMH was the first Indiana hospital to utilize it and the funding made available by it Once commissioners were presented with a petition of about 5000 signatures asking to begin construction of a hospital a comprehensive financial plan was overwhelmingly approved
