Central Peninsula Hospital

Central Peninsula Hospital is buying the independently owned Surgery Center of Kenai for nearly $10 million. Hospital CEO Shaun Keef said the purchase of the two-operating room facility will, in turn, expand the hospital’s capacity and allow it to address a backlog of surgeries.

According to the CDC, there have been more than 250 new reported cases in the Kenai Peninsula Borough over the last week — a 22% increase over the last seven days.

Shaun Keef becomes Central Peninsula Hospital's new CEO July 1.
