Under the deal, the hospital’s current owner — taxing authority Central Health — would share ownership with Seton, and the two would enter into a 100-year lease. The taxing authority is also expected to provide tax revenues to help expand services at the facility, according to the report.
The new facility would serve as a teaching hospital for a new medical school planned at the University of Texas at Austin.
Seton and Central Health have signed a non-binding letter of intent; a final agreement is expected by the end of the year.
