The 150 year old health anchor of brownstone Brooklyn now controlled and run from Manhattan by Continuum Health Partners is slowly being stripped of it’s assets and threatened with closure.
The Medical Staff has filed a complaint with the Attorney General’s office requesting a dissolution of the relationship with Continuum.
The medical staff is convinced that LICH is being controlled and exploited in classic colonial style by the Manhattan institution for
Manhattan’s benefit (i.e. Beth Israel, Roosevelt and St. Lukes)
There is no local board and administrative control resides with Stanley Brezenoff the CEO of Continuum Health Partners and not with the LICH CEO.
The health care needs of brownstone brooklyn is second at best to the financial interests Continuum.
The Medical staff is truly concerned that with it’s assets sold off by Continuum LICH will either morph into a shadow of itself or disappear entirely leaving Brooklyn Heights, Cobble Hill and Carroll Gardens without it’s local hospital.
