Crozer Health plans to permanently close Delaware County Memorial Hospital’s emergency department

CHA Partners, a real estate and development company, has bought and sold at least five hospitals in New Jersey prior to its latest bid in Pennsylvania.

Pennsylvania Attorney General Josh Shapiro wants the hospital company fined for what he believes is a violation of court orders.

Crozer’s troubles go back to a business deal that was initiated in 2019 — one that Pennsylvania officials were warned about, but had little power to stop.
