The final judicial step in the creation of Hudson Regional Health, a new health system, headquartered at in Secaucus and incorporating Hudson Regional Hospital, Christ Hospital in Jersey City, Hoboken University Medical Center, Bayonne Medical Center and more than 70 affiliated practice locations that include a broad spectrum of surgical and medical specialties as well as primary care, was announced today by Yan Moshe, its chairman, and Dr. Nizar Kifaieh, its CEO.
On April 17, 2025, US Bankruptcy Judge Kate Stickles entered an order confirming the Chapter 11 plan of CarePoint Health Systems Inc. and affiliated entities, which paved the way for the creation of the System. On May 22, 2025, the plan went “effective,” enabling HRH to implement the transactions contemplated by the plan.
Mr. Moshe, who transformed the former Meadowlands Hospital into Hudson Regional Hospital in 2018, is completing acquisition of all the hospital properties and the operations of Bayonne Medical Center and oversee the operations of the not-for-profits Hoboken University Medical Center and Christ Hospital.
In order to secure CarePoint’s exit from bankruptcy, Mr. Moshe provided more than $120 million in funding, enabling the former CarePoint facilities to be upgraded similarly to the program designed for the award-winning Hudson Regional Hospital by Dr. Kifaieh.
Hudson Regional previously announced a broad set of improvements and has proposed facility renovations and construction programs that will transform healthcare offerings in each of its communities. Hudson Regional will make a series of announcements as healthcare programs are initiated and processes with various bodies including the department of health proceed.
As a new corporate entity, Hudson Regional Health derives its brand energy from the pioneering spirit and legacy of Hudson Regional Hospital. Over the coming weeks, Hudson Regional Health will roll out its branding and identification program with new community activation, public health, wayfinding and online programs.
