LICH bidder Peebles adds Maimonides, North Shore-LIJ to proposal
Could more surprises be in store?
Developer Don Peebles has reconfigured his bid for Long Island College Hospital (LICH) to include North Shore-LIJ Health System, Maimonides Medical Center and ProHealth Care Associates, Peebles’ spokesperson Bill Cunningham confirmed on Friday.
The joint proposal, first reported by Crain’s NY, would offer a slate of health services at the Cobble Hill site, but would not operate LICH as a full service hospital.
Jodi Cross, Director of Public Relations for Maimonides Medical Center, also confirmed that Maimonides would be participating in the bidding. “Maimonides Medical Center is pleased to be participating in one of the proposals submitted to the state of New York for continuing a healthcare presence in the area that has been served by Long Island College Hospital,” Cross said via email.
