Daily News | Cooper Health and Cape Regional plan to merge
Cooper University Health Care and Cape Regional Health System, which is anchored by 242-bed Cape Regional Medical Center in Cape May Court House, said Wednesday the two nonprofits had signed a preliminary merger agreement.
“As it becomes more and more challenging for smaller health systems to operate independently, merging with Cooper made the most sense as we share the same commitment to the communities we serve and to providing the highest quality care to our patients,” Garry Gilbert, Cape Regional’s board chairman, said in a news release.
Cooper already provides some services at Cape Regional, including doctors for its intensive care unit and tele-health services for stroke victims, according to Joanne Carrocino, Cape Regional’s CEO. The combined systems would have two hospitals with close to 900 beds and employ more than 10,000 people.
