Connecticut's Yale-New Haven, St. Raphael Hospitals to Merge

Under a proposed merger plan, Connecticut's Yale-New Haven Hospital will buy the assets of Hospital of Saint Raphael, also in New Haven, to create a single hospital with two campuses, according to a Hartford Courant report.

Yale-New Haven and St. Raphael first announced merger discussions in March when they signed a letter of intent. Under the agreement, St. Raphael campus will continue to operate under the ethical and religious directives for Catholic healthcare services. A name has not been announced for the combined hospital.

St. Raphael, a 511-bed hospital, had an operating deficit of $14.1 million in fiscal year 2009, which narrowed to less than $1 million last year. Under the merger, it will combine with the state's largest hospital, as Yale-New Haven has 966 beds.
