Emory, St. Joseph's strike partnership deal | Georgia Health News

Emory Healthcare announced a partnership with St. Joseph’s Hospital on Friday in a move that demonstrates a major shift of power among metro Atlanta hospitals .

If the deal gains regulatory approval, Emory would operate hospitals in Midtown Atlanta, Johns Creek and the “Pill Hill’’ section of Sandy Springs, along with its Clifton Road facilities.

And the Emory system may not be finished expanding. The Henry Daily Herald reported this week that Emory has pledged to make Henry Medical Center its exclusive partner in the southern metro area, if the Stockbridge facility agrees to an affiliation. Piedmont Healthcare is the other announced suitor for Henry Medical  Center.

Financial terms of the Emory/St. Joseph’s partnership were not announced. The deal is not an acquisition, and the two systems plan a joint operating company.

In recent months, Piedmont, Tenet Healthcare and other hospital organizations were cited as potential partners for St. Joseph’s, as the Atlanta Business Chronicle points out.

Emory ‘’is spreading its wings,’’ said Dave Smith, a consultant with Kearny Street Consulting. The deal puts Emory on equal footing with Piedmont, Smith said.
