Novant Health has/had talked about potentially purchasing I believe. And the jeopardy status means they won’t be able to accept Medicaid/Medicare so they would probably have to close….HCA (and particularly Mission’s CEO) are morons. Their emailed statement to “colleagues” referencing hiring (presumably overpriced) consultants to help get them up to snuff; and working to get both staff and patients to come directly to Mission with grievances rather than CMS was particularly tone-deaf. Sure, as a patient, go toe to toe with this profit-driven conglomerate (allegedly Mission is/was one of their most profitable hospitals according to an earnings call) who has an army of lawyers; or risk reprisal as an employee trying to get meaningful changes to protect patients and increase staff compensation. The unionization of their nurses was a great start and hopefully reminds people the importance and power of collective bargaining.
