What happened

Some supportReported by 1 outlet

Ellis Hospital is involved in a legal dispute with St. Peter’s Health Partners, a system owned by Trinity Health. The conflict centers on one-year noncompete clauses included in the cardiologists' latest contract. These clauses allegedly prevent cardiologists from performing heart procedures at Ellis Hospital, despite them having done so since 1983. Ellis Hospital claims the noncompete clauses violate a longstanding agreement from a failed merger attempt.
