   Jerry Askew, senior vice president for mission and communication for St. Mary's, said the idea of a joint venture evolved from a set of strategic discussions hospital officials had with its physicians.
   
   Under this proposal, doctors would have a 49 percent ownership stake in the joint venture and St. Mary's would have 51 percent.
   
   "Because of our long-standing relationship with East Tennessee Heart Consultants, we are offering this to some members of that group first. Ultimately we anticipate other qualified physicians will be involved as well," Askew said.
   
   By having physician investors, the hospital would be able to generate capital to improve the quality of its services, like acquiring new equipment, Askew said.
   
   While no new services are being sought, Askew said the certificate of need, which must be approved by the state Health Services and Development Agency, would allow St. Mary's "to provide services more efficiently and cost effectively while at the same time create a space that is more patient friendly and physician friendly."

   Jerry Askew, vice president of marketing and philanthropy at St. Mary's Medical Center, said program fund-raisers will have to think beyond $50 donations.
   
   But the cause is a good one, he said.
   
   "You'd be hard-pressed to find a more compelling group of people than older people who are hungry," Askew said.
   
   Though no specific fund-raising strategies were adopted Thursday, several were proposed, including the use of corporate sponsors, annual fund-raising events and professional fund-raisers.
