Allegheny Health, Education and Research Foundation, one of the nation's brashest not-for-profit health systems, last week filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection. The last-ditch move will allow Pittsburgh-based AHERF, which is $1.3 billion in debt, to restructure money-losing operations and pave the way for the sale of its nine Philadelphia-area hospitals. But the repercussions of the filing will be felt well beyond the state of Pennsylvania.
阿勒格尼健康、教育与研究基金会是美国最具活力的非营利性医疗系统之一,上周申请了破产保护。这一破釜沉舟的举措将使负债13亿美元、总部位于匹兹堡的阿勒格尼健康、教育与研究基金会得以重组亏损业务,并为出售其位于费城地区的九家医院铺平道路。但此次申请破产保护的影响将远远超出宾夕法尼亚州。
