Parsons Hospital was "a small proprietary hospital in Queens"[1] that was transformed into one focused to serving a local largely immigrant population.[2] The hospital, which opened before 1950,[3] closed in 1988,[4] two years after it "was purchased by Asian American doctors."[2]
History
[edit | edit source]In 1986 a group of doctors purchased the 100-bed hospital "to serve the Asian population in Flushing, Queens."[2][5] It became a division of Flushing Hospital Medical Center in 1988[6] the latter was acquired by New York Hospital in April 1996.[4] Parsons closed[4] within months of being "cut off from Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement" for serious violations.[2]
The building was sold with the understanding that the new owner would demolish it.[7]
