Brentwood, Tenn.-based Quorum Health, the 32-hospital spinoff of Franklin, Tenn.-based Community Health Systems, has sold two Pennsylvania hospitals to Williamsport, Pa.-based UPMC Susquehanna.
Under the deal, which closed Sept. 30, Quorum divested 70-bed Sunbury (Pa.) Community Hospital and 47-bed Lock Haven (Pa.) Hospital. Quorum and UPMC Susquehanna signed a definitive agreement in June for the sale of the two hospitals.
Quorum is focused on restructuring its portfolio to improve financial performance. The company saw its net loss narrow from $245.1 million in the second quarter of 2016 to $30.6 million in the same period of this year.
