Hutcheson deal now up to Erlanger

Two of Hutcheson Medical Center's four-decision making boards agreed to relinquish power, consolidating the hospital's corporate structure and pushing the ailing Fort Oglethorpe hospital much closer to a partnership with Erlanger.

Erlanger's board of trustees is set to approve a management agreement that will pump a $20 million line of credit into Hutcheson, which recently laid off 75 employees and defaulted on a $35 million bond.
