The University of Louisville announced June 11 it will not be buying Kentucky One Health’s Louisville assets. Those assets include Jewish Hospital, where U of L has service lines and residencies.
This announcement came after a six-month search for a partner to help acquire the assets. The negotiations ended because the university could not find a partner to help fund this acquisition.
“We regret ending our talks with CHI, but we must do what is fiscally responsible for the University of Louisville,” said UofL President Neeli Bendapudi. “Without a viable partner, we do not have the resources necessary to make the acquisition a reality.
