Information on Proposed Tax Rate
MCHD’s Board of Directors met on August 27, 2025, to discuss the upcoming tax rate.
The prior year’s rate was $0.240911/$100. After consideration of prior year uncompensated care, management proposes to decrease the tax rate to $0.23623 for the upcoming year.
THEREFORE: MOORE COUNTY HOSPITAL DISTRICT PROPOSES TO ADOPT A TAX RATE THAT WILL RAISE MORE TAXES FOR “MAINTENANCE AND OPERATIONS” THAN LAST YEAR’S TAX RATE. THE TAX RATE WILL EFFECTIVELY BE RAISED BY 1.63% AND WILL RAISE TAXES FOR MAINTENANCE AND OPERATIONS ON A $100,000 HOME BY APPROXIMATELY $3.01
Taxes received by MCHD offset the amount of uncompensated care the District received the prior year. The verbiage “Maintenance and Operations” used in the legal notice are governmentally mandated. MCHD only uses taxes for the purpose of offsetting prior year uncompensated care. Instances when the tax rate is lowered but still results in an increase in taxes is due to how the county’s property valuations have been calculated. Moore County Hospital District strives to calculate to the best of its ability a tax rate that will be as close to the uncompensated care deficit as possible without creating either a loss nor profit.
