The Foundation for Delaware County on Wednesday filed a petition to block Prospect Medical Holdings Inc.’s planned closure of Delaware County Memorial Hospital in Upper Darby.
The foundation represents the interests of the former nonprofit owner of the Crozer-Keystone Health System, which Los Angeles-based Prospect acquired in 2016 for $300 million, most of which went to pay off liabilities. Ultimately, the foundation collected $55 million from the sale.
Crozer filed a layoff notice with the Pennsylvania Department of Labor with a closure date of Nov. 26, saying it would eliminate the jobs of 258 union workers plus those of 76 others. Crozer said all of the impacted workers would be able to get jobs elsewhere at Crozer. “It is an unacceptable course of action by Prospect Crozer, and the county remains committed to ensuring that the public health needs of our residents are a priority over the financial considerations of a for-profit corporation,” she said.Crozer Health and ChristianaCare end talks on merger. Crozer could become a nonprofit.
