West side story

For years, MacArthur Square has been one of the least-visited venues in downtown Milwaukee. Public access to the massive park, located just east of the Milwaukee County Courthouse on top of a parking garage and one story above street level, is poor.

Local hospitals whose main focus is on medical and surgical services can have a difficult time offering a fiscally viable behavioral health unit, according to David Moulthrop, president and chief executive officer of Oconomowoc-based Rogers Memorial Hospital.

“Behavioral health care is really an area of health care where funding is very poor,” Moulthrop said. “There are caps on typical insurance benefits, so reimbursements are often money losers for hospitals.”

Insurance companies often impose reimbursement caps for behavioral health treatment at no higher than $8,000, Moulthrop said.
