Brooklyn, N.Y.-based Interfaith Medical Center's hearing on its plan for closure has been delayed until Oct. 15 by the New York State Department of Health, according to an article from Crain's New York.
The hospital set a Sept. 11 court date in late August, during which it had planned to request a Christmas Day closure.
Instead, the Department of Health delayed the hearing and pledged $3.3 million to Interfaith for operational costs during the delay.
Interfaith declared bankruptcy in December 2012 and had been losing about $1.5 million per month in bankruptcy fees as of September.
