The Federal Trade Commission was investigating a proposed merger between Atrium Health Navicent and Houston Healthcare System, which was called off late last month.
The agency disclosed that it was investigating the deal between two Georgia systems and had determined that it would have harmed prices and quality had the merger gone through. The investigation, which is now closed, is the latest by the agency into hospital deals.
“The proposed transaction threatened to increase healthcare costs for employers and patients in the region and would have substantially lessened competition that has benefitted the community through expansion of healthcare services and improved quality of care,” said FTC Acting Chairwoman Rebecca Slaughter in a statement on Wednesday.
Blackstone Group is in exclusive talks to acquire a minority stake in Sify Technologies, according to people with knowledge of the matter. The communications infrastructure firm has sought a valuation of around $1 billion to $1.2 billion in a transaction, said the people, who asked not to be identified because the talks were private. It’s unclear what valuation the Blackstone stake purchase will be struck at and talks could still fall apart. Sify’s American depositary receipts rose 6.7 per cent in pre-market trading on Friday in the US. The company had a market value of about $484 million as of Thursday. Representatives for Blackstone and Sify declined to comment.
