STATEMENT REGARDING LETTER FROM SUTTER HEALTH
February 13, 2025 – Hollister, Calif. – On February 5, 2025, the San Benito Health Care District Board received an unsolicited letter from two representatives of Sutter Health expressing interest in exploring a possible partnership with the District. In response, the District reached out to Sutter regarding its interest. After this meeting, the District was informed that Sutter wasn’t interested in pursuing further discussions.
According to Sutter Health, “As all health systems do, it is part of our normal course of business to explore opportunities and have conversations with other health systems across Northern California. We were never in any active discussions, are not planning any, and understand Hazel Hawkins Memorial Hospital has a solution underway that works for the community.”
In the meantime, negotiations with Insight Health remain ongoing as we work toward final agreements.
