The Economic Development Administration awarded $2.9 million under the Economic Adjustment Assistance program to Pikeville Medical Center Inc. on March 18, 2022. The funding supports the purchase of a linear accelerator, allowing Pikeville Medical Center to meet patient demand for high-quality cancer care in eastern Kentucky. The linear accelerator will help the region diversify its economy and create or save jobs as the area recovers from declines in the coal industry. The Economic Adjustment Assistance program provides technical and infrastructure assistance to regions facing adverse economic changes over time.
