New Orleans-based University Healthcare System, a partnership between Tulane University in New Orleans and HCA, signed a letter of intent to partner with East Jefferson General Hospital in 2017. However, HCA ended negotiations earlier this month.
Officials confirmed Aug. 22 that Ochsner also dropped out of partnership talks with the hospital.
Although HCA and Ochsner have ended negotiations, the hospital is still in discussions with New Orleans-based LCMC Health, according to the report.
