Officials say Roger Williams Medical Center and Our Lady of Fatima Hospital are operating, but the state’s health care system does not have the capacity to absorb their patients if they were forced to close.
Prospect Medical Holdings has filed for bankruptcy and plans to restructure, maintaining patient services during the process.
In a statement, the company said specifically it was looking to expedite the sales of Roger Williams and Our Lady of Fatima medical centers.
In an initial filing seeking Chapter 11 protections, Prospect Medical Holdings, which owns facilities in California, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island, and Connecticut, listed debts of more than $400 million. In a press release announcing its restructuring, the company said it would continue to operate as normal.
