UPMC to Acquire Washington Health System in Merger Plan
UPMC plans to acquire Washington Health System, as the two healthcare providers have signed a non-binding letter of intent to integrate the Washington-based health system into UPMC. The affiliation is subject to customary regulatory filings. The move is aimed at ensuring the residents of Washington and Greene Counties have local access to high-quality healthcare that is sustainable into the future. The WHS board unanimously approved the move on June 1.
