The terms of the agreement have yet to be disclosed.
News of the deal comes nearly six weeks after a proposed agreement between Good Shepherd and Brentwood, Tenn.-based Duke LifePoint fell through in October.
“We feel strongly that Christus Health is the best potential partner for our organization,” said Good Shepherd President and CEO Steve Altmiller. “After our experience searching for the right fit, it became clear that Christus Health, a not-for-profit partner based here in Texas, could provide Good Shepherd with both the resources to expand the care we currently provide and strengthen our hospitals for the future, helping us to navigate the rapidly-changing health care environment in the U.S.”
