In July, Prime signed a letter of intent to acquire all assets of Southern Regional and to invest at least $50 million in capital improvements in the hospital over the next five years.

With the asset purchase agreement approved by the bankruptcy court, Prime will operate the hospital under a management services agreement until the sale is completed in early December. The Georgia Attorney General’s office and the Georgia Department of Community Health still must review the sale.
