Ladies and Gentlemen:

We have acted as special Tennessee counsel to CHS/Community Health Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), and the Guarantors (as defined below), each organized and existing under the laws of the State of Tennessee, in connection with the public offering of up to $1.0 billion aggregate principal amount of 8.000% Senior Exchange Notes Due 2019 (the “New Notes”) of the Company which are to be unconditionally guaranteed on an unsecured senior basis (the “Guarantees”) by each of the Company’s wholly-owned subsidiaries, including the Tennessee entities set forth on Schedule I attached hereto (the subsidiary guarantors set forth on Schedule I attached hereto being collectively referred to herein as the “Guarantors”). The New Notes are to be issued pursuant to an exchange offer (the “Exchange Offer”) in exchange for a like principal amount and denomination of the Company’s issued and outstanding 8.000% Senior Notes Due 2019 (the “Old Notes”), as contemplated by the Registration Rights Agreement dated as of November 22, 2011 (the “Registration Rights Agreement”), by and among the Company, the Guarantors and the “Initial Purchasers.” The New Notes are to be issued by the Company, and the Guarantees are to be made by the Guarantors, in connection with an exchange offer to be made pursuant to a Registration Statement on Form S-4, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on or about March 21, 2012. The Old Notes were issued, and the New Notes will be issued, under an Indenture, dated as of November 22, 2011, by and among the Company, Community Health Systems, Inc., a Delaware corporation, those “Subsidiary Guarantors” that from time to time become parties to the Indenture and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the “Indenture”).

This opinion is being furnished in accordance with the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulation S-K under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”).

We express no opinion as to the enforceability of the Guarantees or the Indenture.
