The closing date was pushed back from Aug. 31 because due diligence research has taken longer than expected, the report states.
2. As part of the deal, Cleveland Clinic will take over the district’s lease with IRMC Inc., a private nonprofit that currently operates the hospital and its associated facilities. Cleveland Clinic will also be in charge of all hospital operations.
