Hospital woos buyer

A northeast Georgia hospital is going up for sale. Leaders of Banks-Jackson-Commerce Hospital Medical Center – or BJC – have signed a non-binding letter of intent to sell. The prospective buyer is Marietta-based Doctors Hospital of Georgia. The goal is to find a buyer who will then build another hospital nearby. The hospital authority has wanted to build a new $37 million public hospital but couldn't afford the project on its own.
