OSF will not provide inpatient services at the location, the system said in a Feb. 28 statement shared with Becker’s.

Cottage Hospital closed Jan. 8 because of CMS terminating the facility’s Medicare contract.

OSF said it expects to close on the sale this spring.

“OSF recognizes that change is never easy but anticipates this will best serve the healthcare needs for Galesburg and surrounding areas going forward,” OSF said in the statement.

At the Becker's 11th Annual IT + Revenue Cycle Conference: The Future of AI & Digital Health, taking place September 14–17 in Chicago, healthcare executives and digital leaders from across the country will come together to explore how AI, interoperability, cybersecurity, and revenue cycle innovation are transforming care delivery, strengthening financial performance, and driving the next era of digital health.
