Rethinking Private-Public Partnership in the Health Care Sector: The Case of Municipal Hospital Affiliation MERLIN CHOWKWANYUN SUMMARY: By the late 1950s, New York City’s public hospital system—more extensive than any in the nation—was falling apart, with dilapidated buildings and personnel shortages. In response, Mayor Robert Wagner authorized an affiliation plan whereby the city paid private academic medical centers to oversee training programs, administrative tasks, and resource procurement. Affiliation sparked vigorous protest from critics, who saw it as both an incursion on the autonomy of community-oriented public hospitals and the steamrolling of private interests over public ones. In the wake of the New York City fiscal crisis of 1975, however, the viability of a purely public hospital system withered, given the new economic climate facing the city. In its place was a new institutional form: affiliation and the public-private provision of public health care. KEYWORDS: urban health, New York City, protest, hospitals, health services, health care, public health, public policy, private-public partnerships, academic medical centers 1 This is a preprint of an accepted article scheduled to appear in the Bulletin of the History of Medicine, vol. 93, no. 4 (Winter 2019).

A great many of these asked information as to hotels, theatres, restaurants, ferries, railroad offices, street-car routes, elevated railroads, libraries, public buildings, pleasure resorts, short excursions, etc. The eleven hundred resident members of the Asso- ciation ask many questions as to the location of public offices, hack-rates, distances, automobile sta- tions and similar subjects.

    Fordham University DEPARTMENT OF INTERCOLLEGIATE ATHLETICS 2015-2016 STUDENT-ATHLETE HANDBOOK Fordham University Department of Intercollegiate Athletics 441 E. Fordham Road Bronx, NY 11458 Phone 718.817.4300 • Fax 718.817.5588 Property of: ___________________________________________________ Address:______________________________________________________ Phone #:______________________ Email: ________________________ In case of emergency, please notify: Name: _______________________ Phone #:_______________________ 1 SECTION 1 DEPARTMENT’S MISSION, PHILOSOPHY, OBJECTIVES AND STRATEGIES MISSION STATEMENT The ultimate objective of Fordham University’s Department of Intercollegiate Athletics is to inte- grate academic and athletic experiences successfully in the Jesuit tradition. Student-athletes are expected to benefit from the educational, professional, and cultural advantages of a university lo- cated in New York City. Accordingly, we are committed to broad participation in intercollegiate athletics, with ample oppor- tunity provided for meaningful and successful contributions by men and women of diverse back- ground, culture and experiences. For all athletic pursuits, whether they are at the varsity, club, intramural, or recreational level, the Athletic Department strives to provide a rewarding experience for all its constituents. The Depart- ment conducts its activities in ways that promote sportsmanship, camaraderie, and a comprehensive commitment to academic excellence, diversity, and equitable opportunity for all students and staff. PHILOSOPHY Excellence in the fields of academics and athletics should be viewed as mutually beneficial. The concern of the Athletic Department for nurturing the well-being of its student-athletes, therefore, is in keeping with the University’s reputation for excellence and integrity. Since the Athletic De- partment directs its coaches to be aware that academics is primary, it encourages them to monitor student-athletes’ class attendance and to find effective means to assist them in their academic pur- suits.
