OHSU, Legacy walk away from merger

OHSU, Legacy walk away from merger 
Becker's Hospital Review; by Kelly Gooch; 5/5/25 
Oregon Health & Science University and Legacy Health, both based in Portland, said May 5 that they mutually agreed to terminate their planned merger. ... Neither system provided additional details on the reasoning behind their decision. The combined system under OHSU Health would have covered 12 hospitals and more than 32,000 employees, and been one of Oregon’s largest service providers to Medicaid members. As part of the merger, OHSU had said it would invest about $1 billion over a decade to support primary care and community-based services that would be part of the combined system. 
Editor's note: OHSU provides palliative care and Legacy Health provides palliative and hospice care.
