SUNY receives seven proposals to buy LICH
The State University of New York (SUNY) has received seven responses to their May 1 request for “expressions of interest from qualified parties who could provide health care services, including operation of an acute care hospital, at or around the Long Island College Hospital (LICH) site).”
The seven proposals, made available this week on SUNY’s website, come from groups as diverse as various owners and operators of other health care facilities around the country, to a real estate investor and developer.
Their suggestions range from maintaining LICH as is or as acute care or specialized care facilities to selling off and leasing part of the property in order to fund an acute care hospital and emergency department.
