Steward Health, which operates 31 hospitals in eight U.S. states, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in Texas on Monday, aiming to secure a new loan from its landlord Medical Properties Trust. Steward will seek up to $300 million in financing from Medical Properties Trust, after failing to quickly close a sale of its physician group Stewardship Health. "With the delay in closing of the Stewardship Health transaction, Steward was forced to seek alternative methods of bridging its operations," Steward CEO Ralph de la Torre said Monday.
Steward Health, which operates 30 hospitals in nine U.S. states, filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in Texas on Monday, aiming to secure a new loan from its landlord Medical Properties Trust. The privately-owned hospital chain said it would continue serving patients as normal during its bankruptcy. Steward has sought short-term financing and to sell its physician group Stewardship Health, but the disposal has not come together as quickly as planned, forcing it to seek up to $300 million in financing from Medical Properties Trust.
