NAPLES — The trustees of Marion County Hospital District selected Health Management Associates to begin exclusive negotiations for a long-term lease of the 421-bed Munroe Regional Medical Center in Ocala.
Naples-based Health Management's lease of Munroe Regional Medical Center will be done in partnership with Shands Hospital, the University of Florida's affiliated teaching hospital.
“Munroe Regional has a devoted medical staff, and enormous support among the community, the associates, volunteers and its board,” says Alan Levine, HMA's senior vice president and Florida group president, in a statement.
Munroe Regional will become part of Health HMA's network in Florida, which currently includes 23 hospitals, and will have a statewide clinical affiliation with the Shands Hospital.
HMA, through its subsidiaries, operates 71 hospitals with approximately 11,100 licensed beds in non-urban communities located throughout the U.S.
