We are watching the Healthcare Association of New York State, they're an advocate of MVHS's $300M boondoggle.
August 5, 2017 - A #NoHospitalDowntown member has an observation of MVHS relative to a HANYS report, it goes like this, "Hey mom, I know you already took my allowance away - but I would like it back and this time I want 65% more than what you use to give me." Get the full story here HANYS's State Budget Testimony/Recommendations for 2016-2017?...
It does appear that MVHS Was Slipping Financially and seems to be struggling to borrow their share ($150,000,000) of new hospital funding, and it is confirmed in their C.O.N. application as it calls out a "bridge financing" solution.

January 20, 2011 - Pressure was mounting long ago, was $300M really needed or intended for a "new hospital"?

Politicians have tried very hard to attract "Nano", have they start looking for "easy pickings" by targeting to move around our hospital staffs? Read a NANYS's report, Report Finds Hospitals Are Economic Anchors of New York State

Was this report, or the HANYS association, the genesis using the "anchor institutions" buzzword?
