A Thousand Words: New healthcare oversight law
Gov. Maura Healey signed an expanded hospital oversight bill on Jan. 8 in the wake of the closure of two Steward Health Care-owned hospitals, including Nashoba Valley Medical Center in Ayer. Community and healthcare leaders pressured the governor to do more to save the hospitals, with Healey responding there was nothing she could do. As hospitals throughout the region continue to grapple with financial strains, officials look to prevent future hospital closures and crises.
