Served as special counsel to Pipeline Health System, LLC and its affiliates in their Chapter 11 cases in the U.S. Bankruptcy Court for the Southern District of Texas in connection with selling Pipeline’s “safety net” hospitals, health clinics and medical office buildings in Chicago, Illinois, including Weiss Memorial Hospital and West Suburban Medical Center. Pipeline’s hospitals (including four in California and one in Texas) operate in historically underserved communities, and a significant percentage of the hospitals’ patients rely on Medicare, Medicaid and other governmental reimbursement programs. Pipeline came into the Chapter 11 proceedings with a plan of reorganization seeking to restructure over $600 million of financing obligations.*
