Why NewsLanc reps are back on the streets this weekend

Despite the near freezing temperatures, we are distributing our newsletter because the public needs to know more about the proposed merger of Lancaster General Hospital with the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania.

At the top of the newsletter, we state:

“Lancaster General Health, a public foundation owned by Lancaster’s public and worth a billion dollars, is negotiating a merger with the hospital of the University of Pennsylvania.

They won’t tell LNP, let alone NewsLanc, what is being discussed, nor seek public input. The deal will be done by the time we learn about it.

Please read the articles below and then discuss with friends and leaders.”

We follow with two recent NewsLanc articles:

“Is LGH / U of P hospital mergers a scam?”

“Hospitals sock it to the poor who have no health care coverage”

While Lancastrians continue to sleep through establishment abuses, we at NewsLanc remain vigilant and committed to reporting effectively on them. Are you meeting your reponsibility by discussing LGH clandestine negotiations with friends and officials?
