Hospital president Alan Sattler said final approvals are expected in the fall but, if the American Healthcare Systems deal doesn’t go through, ProMedica would not leave the Coldwater community without a plan for any eventual transition even if there is no such plan currently.
“I don’t know what we’ll do,” Mr. Sattler said in the event of a failed deal. “But we’re not going to just pick up and go willy nilly. We’ll have to figure it out, plan B. I don’t know what Plan B is.”
American Healthcare Systems revealed May 24 it is the planned buyer of the Coldwater facility, one of multiple hospitals it is seeking to acquire.
