About
History of the El Camino Healthcare District (ECHD)
In the mid-1950s, when orchards and fields in the Los Altos and Mountain View area were quickly turning into suburbs and commercial enclaves, a group of physicians and concerned citizens banded together to establish a much needed community hospital. The few existing local hospitals were at capacity; hospitals to the north and south were badly overcrowded. The best and fairest way, they decided, was to form a hospital district and levy a tax so the cost would be shared over the population of the entire area.
Reimbursement and Compensation
The ECHD Board of Directors is composed of five publicly elected or appointed representatives. The District has no employees, relying upon staff provided under an agreement with El Camino Hospital. Under that agreement, the hospital provides to the District its Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer.
ECHD Funding Distribution
Distribution of District Funding
