Merger between Catholic Health, Mount St. Mary's Hospital receives go-ahead

New York State Health Department officials have approved plans for 175-bed Mount St. Mary's Hospital and Health Center in Lewiston, N.Y., to become a full member of Catholic Health, according to a Buffalo News report.

Mount St. Mary's is currently an affiliate of St. Louis-based Ascension Health. Catholic Health is a joint venture between Ascension, Livonia, Mich.-based Trinity Health and the Diocese of Buffalo. 

As part of the deal, Mount St. Mary's will join Catholic Health, but its skilled nursing facility will remain as a solely-operated entity of Ascension, according to the report.

The merger is expected to be completed by next summer, according to the report.
