90-Day Notice of Intent to Discontinue Services
June 29, 2020 Via Email Sherman Lohnes, Esq., Director Division of Health Care Facility Licensure and Certification Bureau of Health Care Safety and Quality Department of Public Health 67 Forest Street Marlborough, MA 01752 Re: Holyoke Medical Center, Inc. – Formal 90-Day Essential Service Notice – Closure of Inpatient Obstetrics/Maternity Services and Well Infant Nursery Dear Attorney Lohnes: We write on behalf of Holyoke Medical Center, Inc. (the “Medical Center” or “HMC”). Pursuant to 105 CMR 130.122(B), the Medical Center hereby provides ninety (90) day notice to the Department of Public Health (“Department”) of its decision to discontinue its operation of its Inpatient Obstetrics/Maternity Service and its bassinet Well Infant Nursery service (the “Services”). This letter is in follow-up to the required initial notices that were filed with the appropriate parties on May 29, 2020. We offer the following comments with respect to this matter. The Medical Center has determined that the Services should be closed due to low utilization for the past several years. Without a higher caseload of obstetric/maternity and infant patients, the professional skills and competence of the Medical Center’s physicians and staff have the potential to not be sufficiently preserved or developed, particularly in matters involving complications such as emergency C-sections. In addition, without a critical volume, further investments in the Services are financially not feasible. A hospital cannot maintain clinically thriving and financially sound obstetrical/maternity and nursery services if few patients choose to use them and, instead, obtain care from other providers. Patient choice in the service area is the main driver of these considerations. -
