An affiliation between All Children's Hospital in St. Petersburg, Fla., and Johns Hopkins Health System is expected to be complete by March, according to a St. Petersburg Times report.
Under the deal, All Children's will become part of JHHS. The affiliation was announced last July, but due diligence has taken longer than expected, according to the report. Both parties are now establishing a definitive agreement, which is expected to go before the All Children's board for approval in the first quarter of the year.
The deal would be the first expansion out of the Maryland-Washington area for JHHS. When the deal was broadly outlined last summer, both parties agreed no money would change hands. The majority of All Children's board members will remain Florida residents, ensuring local control, and the hospital's daily operations and staffing will not change.
