The fact that Central FL Health (which consists of 2 hospitals) exists in this age of hospital mergers is amazing. Hospitals over the last 15 years have merged or been acquired to take advantage of the benefits of purchasing power (of a larger institution) in addition to other benefits. In most cases, the more efficient, well-run hospital network will survive. The fact the TVRH and Leesburg were acquired by Shands can only be a good thing. There's a lot to sort out... It will take a while to get all the answers.
