Monroe County entities make plans for on-site health clinics

Three of the area’s major employers — MCCSC, IU and county government — are considering on-site employee health clinics, which officials say will make employees healthier and hold down health care costs.

But could the three entities merge their efforts, creating one vast clinic with less overhead costs?

No, according to several officials who say that the needs of the three entities are too dissimilar to make a good match.
