New York’s Mount Sinai Medical Center said it’s closing two units at its Beth Israel Hospital in downtown Manhattan this month.
Certifications for stroke and cardiac units expire in early March, according to court documents filed Tuesday. The move comes after a state Department of Health cease-and-desist letter halted the wind-down of the hospital system without state approval.
