Kaleida Health Acquisition Fails; Closure of Pavilion Planned
What happened
Discussions between Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine and Kaleida Health regarding the acquisition of the Bradford Regional Medical Center campus ended in early September. The deal stalled due to a proposed stipulation that would prevent Lake Erie College of Osteopathic Medicine from starting clinical services that might compete with Kaleida Health’s Olean General Hospital. Following the breakdown, Martin Causer called for an Attorney General investigation into Kaleida Health, and the company is moving ahead with plans to close The Pavilion by December 1.
