                      SCRANTON, Pa. (Feb. 1, 2019) – Commonwealth Health Moses Taylor Hospital contributed to the community in 2018 in many ways beyond providing quality medical care. As one of Scranton’s largest employers, we contribute to the local economy by paying property and sales taxes, providing jobs and through sponsorships and donations to local organizations and groups.

                      We support local vendors through purchases and services and our employees do the same. We support local organizations and events through both our participation and our financial sponsorships.

                      Our financial benefits to the community last year include:
