Prime Healthcare Services, which bought as much as $30 million of Parkview’s debt in Dec. 2009, was expected to take legal action if the hospital did not meet the deadline.
The Press-Enterprise quoted Parkview CEO Doug Drumwright as saying the hospital was still negotiating with its lender and was making progress toward securing a loan. Prime Healthcare had offered to extend the debt repayment deadline until the end of March if the hospital agreed to certain conditions, but the hospital refused.
Parkview, a nonprofit 450-bed community hospital, will remain open even if a notice of default is filed, according to the story. It has been trying to get into a mortgage insurance program of the U.S. Housing and Urban Development Department that would refinance the hospital’s debt.
