The public benefit corporation running Nassau University Medical Center has suffered an operating loss of $135.6 million in 2021, an audit revealed.
The audit, requested by NUMC Board Chairman Matthew Bruderman, showed that NuHealth, which also operates the A. Holly Patterson Extended Care Facility in Uniondale, is struggling.
Auditors from the accounting company Grant Thornton said that the corporation “is dependent on the continuation of federal, state and local subsidies, certain of which have or are scheduled to end or be reduced. These matters raise substantial doubt about NHCC’s ability to continue as a going concern.”
