Conor Reidy Discusses Oppositions to Indiana Hospital Merger with Law360
Winston & Strawn partner Conor Reidy was quoted in a Law360 article discussing opposition from Indiana’s top law enforcement official to the merger between two hospitals. While the hospitals argue that the deal will prevent reductions in services, both state and federal regulators have cautioned that the merger would create a regional hospital monopoly, allowing cost hikes for patients and driving down staff wages in a mostly rural region already struggling to attract experienced doctors and nurses. In a letter to the state Department of Health, Indian Attorney General Todd Rokita said the hospital should be denied a Certificate of Public Advantage because the potential efficiencies of such a deal are outweighed by the potential downsides, including “unchecked” cost hikes.
