NSW Government to Acquire Northern Beaches Hospital in $190 Million Public Takeover

The New South Wales government has reached an in-principle agreement to purchase the Northern Beaches Hospital for $190 million, according to reports. The acquisition would end a decade of private operation and integrate the facility into the public hospital system, though medical staff express concerns about reduced patient choice.

Major Healthcare Transition

The New South Wales government will reportedly spend $190 million to acquire the Northern Beaches Hospital from private operators, according to sources familiar with the agreement. The purchase would mark the end of a decade-long experiment with private ownership of a major Sydney healthcare facility and integrate it fully into the public hospital system.
