Four surgical centers in Connecticut will emerge from bankruptcy under new ownership, according to an application with the Office of Health Strategy.
Wilton Surgery Center, Bloomfield Eye Surgery Center, Connecticut Eye Surgery Center South in Milford and Eastern Connecticut Endoscopy Center in Norwich have filed separate Certificate of Need applications seeking OHS approval of a proposed indirect change in ownership.
Nashville, Tennessee-based Envision Healthcare Corp. currently owns the four surgical centers through an affiliate, AmSurg LLC.
In May, Envision filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy in the Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas.Â
As part of the bankruptcy, a creditor – Pacific Investment Management Co. LLC – will take ownership through a subsidiary, according to the application.
The court is expected to approve the deal during the fourth quarter of 2023.
The facilities will continue to operate under their existing licenses and will provide the same services, according to the application.
AmSurg owns more than 250 surgical centers in 34 states. Pacific Investment Management Co., also known as PIMCO, is based in Newport Beach, California.
