The two organizations — which reportedly sent memos to staff members this past summer concerning their intent to merge — submitted the CON to the New York State Department of Health, the New York State Office of Mental Health and the Office of Alcohol and Substance Abuse Services, according to a news release. The new system’s parent company will oversee state-licensed and regulated healthcare affiliates of Unity and Rochester General.
After regulatory approvals, Unity and Rochester General will determine the system’s name and how to identify the affiliates that it will include. Meanwhile, the working title for the new system is “RU System.”
The submission is expected to be reviewed at a state public health and health planning council meeting in April.
