The two systems have had an affiliation for certain clinical services since 2005, but are currently rumored to be discussing the integration of public NUMC into private North Shore-LIJ, according to an East Meadow Patch report.
The Nassau County comptroller’s concerns focused on a lack of defined benefits for the integration, an undisclosed management fee to North Shore-LIJ and lack of alternative bids, among other issues, according to the East Meadow Patch report.
Following the concerns, North Shore-LIJ said it is working to revise the agreement but has not yet submitted a formal proposal.
