Health Firm to Acquire Mission District Hospital
From Times Staff, Wire Reports
The state attorney general approved letting Sutter Health take over San Francisco’s last independent full-service hospital.
The Sacramento-based network of hospitals and medical groups could assume control of the financially troubled St. Luke’s Hospital in the Mission District as early as next month. Sutter must maintain on-site acute care, emergency room service, an intensive care unit and clinics at the hospital for at least five years. It also must agree to provide at least $2 million annually to treat the poor and uninsured.
