When Adeptus filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in April, New York City-based hedge fund Deerfield Management committed to providing Adeptus with debtor-in-possession financing. Through the restructuring process, Deerfield will take over ownership of Adeptus.

Including the additional $17 million, Deerfield’s total bankruptcy loan to Adeptus would total $74 million, according to Reuters.
