Despite the delay, St. John’s said that Montefiore would be a strong partner and remains optimistic about a future partnership.
Talks between the two organizations began in 2018, and St. John’s officials said last year that it hoped to have a deal finalized with Montefiore in the first quarter of 2020.
St. John’s already is a clinical affiliate of Montefiore, a system comprising 15 member hospitals and more than 200 outpatient sites.
