Project Details: - Size: 184,000 square feet - Funding: USDA Rural Development loans - Opened: January 23, 2026 (ribbon cutting) - Purpose: Replace aging facility, consolidate services
Citizens Health is a SUCCESS STORY - one of the few rural hospitals THRIVING while others collapse. Allan is there to: 1. Manage the transition to the new $119M facility 2. Oversee financial integration of consolidated operations 3. Ensure smooth go-live for new systems 4. Maintain profitability during major capital project
| Role | Name | Compensation (2023) |

| CEO | David McCorkle | $285,079 |
| CFO (Permanent) | Ryan Stover | $193,759 |
| Interim CFO | Allan Scroggins | (Contractor) |

| Name | Jacobson Memorial Hospital Care Center |
| Location | Elgin, North Dakota |
| Allan’s Role | Interim CFO |
| Start Date | June 2023 |
| Duration | 1 year 9 months (LONGEST current engagement) |
| Employees | 88 total (only 1 physician!) |
| Annual Revenue | $12.3 million |
| Annual Expenses | $13.1 million |
| Net Loss (FY22) | -$823,000 |
| Debt | $4 MILLION at 7-15% interest |
| Status | OPERATING “PAYROLL TO PAYROLL” |
In January 2026, Jacobson Memorial was in danger of CLOSING. The North Dakota Legislature held a special session to save them:
Senate Bill 2403: - Passed: Senate 46-0 (unanimous!) - Authorized: Bank of North Dakota emergency loan - Amount: Up to $5 MILLION - Interest Rate: Capped at 2% - Purpose: Debt restructuring and operations
Direct Quote from News: > “The hospital has been operating ‘payroll to payroll’ due to years of financial mismanagement and leadership turnover.”
This is Allan’s longest active engagement. He’s not just fixing the books - he’s saving the hospital from closure. The state had to pass emergency legislation because of how dire the situation was.
If Jacobson closes: - Residents face 45+ minute drives to nearest hospital - 88 jobs lost in tiny community - Economic impact: $5.2 million/year lost - 5-county region loses emergency care
| Metric | Value |
|---|---|
| Service Area | 2,000 square miles |
| Counties Served | Grant, Morton, Sioux, Hettinger, Adams |
| Total Financial Impact | $5.2 million/year |
| Direct Employment | 64 jobs |

Allan Scroggins is literally keeping this hospital alive.
Allan exhibits classic “fixer” psychology: - Attracted to crisis - goes where problems are worst - Short-term intense focus - solve it, move on - High stress tolerance - lives in hotels, works multiple jobs - Mission-driven - saves hospitals, saves communities - Independent - doesn’t want to be an employee
Based on LinkedIn activity and career patterns:
Community Impact - He likes posts about:
Underdog Champion - Works at:
Self-Improvement - Got MBA at 50+ while working
Relationships - 607 connections, engages with former colleagues
One LinkedIn post he liked contained this quote: > “1,500 nights. 4 years of my life living in a hotel room.”
Allan LIVES this. He works in Kansas while his wife Karen practices in Texas. He’s in North Dakota for almost 2 years. This isn’t a job - it’s a calling.
Based on his psychology: 1. “Multiply your impact” - Help more hospitals without more travel 2. “Save more communities” - His mission, amplified 3. “Your expertise as software” - Legacy beyond his career 4. “Work from home sometimes” - See Karen more

If Genesis captures just 10% of the CAH market (138 hospitals): - Revenue: $138 x $5,000/month = $690,000 MRR = $8.28M ARR
If Genesis becomes the standard for rural hospital AI: - 1,386 CAHs + 1,800+ rural hospitals = 3,000+ potential customers - TAM: $180+ billion market by 2034
“Allan, you’ve spent 30 years saving hospitals that everyone else gave up on. San Carlos Apache. Jacobson Memorial - you literally kept them from closing. Citizens Health - you’re managing a $119 million expansion. That knowledge is priceless, but it’s trapped in your head and limited by your time.”
“Right now, you can help 2-3 hospitals at a time. You live in hotels. You work payroll to payroll in Elgin while managing a billion-dollar expansion in Colby. There are 1,386 Critical Access Hospitals in America, and 700 of them might close. You can’t save them all - not like this.”
“Genesis can turn your 30 years of expertise into software that works 24/7. Imagine: every pattern you’ve ever seen, every red flag you know to look for, every playbook you’ve developed - all of it, available to every struggling hospital in America. YOUR methodology. YOUR name. YOUR legacy.”
“We want to build this with you. Not for you - WITH you. Start with Colby and Elgin. Prove it works. Then roll it out to every CAH in Kansas - you know them, they trust you. Within 3 years, you could be helping 100+ hospitals instead of 2. And you could do it from Weatherford, with Karen, instead of hotel rooms.”
