Can New Owners Turn Around Struggling Roger Williams and Fatima Hospitals? Neronha Is Not Convinced. - Seward Independent
Neronha said the proposal would not keep the hospitals solvent and warned CharterCARE faces a Friday deadline to submit a revised plan.
- Attorney General Peter Neronha rejected the turnaround plan for Roger Williams Medical Center and Our Lady of Fatima Hospital on Friday, calling it "unrealistic and unsupported," and mandated a revised submission by October 2.
- The Centurion Foundation acquired the two hospitals in March following Prospect Medical Holdings' bankruptcy, while state regulators imposed 85 conditions—including a strategic plan—to ensure their survival.
- Serving 50,000 annual emergency room visits, the hospitals employ 2,400 workers and maintain 500 beds; they face major losses under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act with just over 40 days of cash on hand.
- Failure to submit a revised plan by October 2 could prompt Neronha to petition a judge for intervention, as he emphasized the current proposal "isn't sufficient" to ensure continued operations.
- Contract negotiations between CharterCARE Health and unionized workers remain "not going well" after five months, with union counsel Chris Callaci expressing concern that labor disputes threaten the hospitals' long-term viability.
