With federal funding, a remote Wyoming community is bucking closure trends across the rural U.S. and building its own hospital. It's not the only one.

    Yeah i came up with a few possible explanations:

    1. Corporate strategic decision to cut less profitable hospitals.
    2. Reduced population from people moving to the cities.
    3. Changes in billing or insurance that reduce profitability.

    Or some combination of these.
