Orlando Health has assumed ownership of three hospitals and related physician practices located on Florida’s east central coast. The acquisitions were the result of an asset purchase agreement with Steward Health Care, approved by a bankruptcy court. Orlando Health immediately rebranded the hospitals into Orlando Health Melbourne Hospital, Orlando Health Rockledge Hospital and Orlando Health Sebastian River Hospital.
“These acquisitions offer a new day in healthcare for residents of these communities,” says Ohme Entin, SVP, Orlando Health East Region. “History has shown that when Orlando Health expands into new communities, the quality of healthcare increases and the communities benefit. We’re excited to replicate those successes with these communities in Brevard and Indian River counties.”
Earlier this month on October 1, Orlando Health assumed majority ownership in Brookwood Baptist Health in Birmingham, Alabama in partnership with Baptist Health System. Orlando Health will manage day-to-day operations of the system.
