Sinai is part of Premier Hospital Alliance, an in- tegrated system of teaching hospitals that offers a wide range of services for member hospitals. Incorporated in 1983 for Jewish hospitals, Premier today is open to any hospital. The numbers of Jewish member hospitals has decreased. In 1988, Premier served almost 40 Jewish hospitals. Today, there are 32. Many have merged in the past few years. Among them are Michael Reese Hospital in Chicago, which is ex- pected to be sold next month to Humana. Mount Sinai Hospital of Hartford merged with Saint Francis Hospital. Montefiore Hospital of Pitt- sburgh merged with the University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. And Mount Zion Medical Center of San Francisco merged with the University of California hospital. "There are very few markets in this country where Jewish physicians can not find other alternatives," said Alan Weinstein, presi- dent of Premier Health Alli- ance. "Whether we need a Jewish hospital or not depends upon the consti- tuency. If it is viewed as a giveback to the community to broaden a base as a sym- bol of outreach, then there certainly is a need. If we are in the business of providing health care services to the community, there, too, is a need." Donald Potter, president of the Southeast Michigan Hospital Council, said the issue is whether indepen- dent hospitals can survive this transitional health care era. "The mergers and acquisi- tions of the big units creates an environment for economies of scale. We're in a gridlock. All hospitals are losing money," Mr. Potter said. "You can get eaten alive as an independent. "The question is not whether there is room for a Jewish hospital," Mr. Potter said. "The question is whether there is room for a free-standing hospital." Dr. Conrad Giles believes the hospital can survive as long as it continues to at- tract physicians and pa- tients. "It is clear to me that there is a deep commitment within the Jewish community for keeping a Jewish hospital, and I applaud this," said Dr. Giles, immediate past presi- dent of the Jewish Welfare Federation. "The recent res- urgence of this commitment by the physicians as evidenced by the marked in- crease of occupancy somewhat underscores the significance of a Jewish hospital in Detroit. Clearly there is a need." "I am confident that the physicians at Sinai are fully capable of sustaining this renaissance and that the future of Sinai Hospital is bright," Dr. Giles said. Offi- cials from the Federation said Sinai always has been an important service to the Jewish and general com- munities. Founded as a place for Jewish physicians to work when other hospitals turned them away, Sinai, they said, has healed the whole community. Sinai provides free health care services to the new Americans from the Soviet Union. The hospital also engages in joint programs with Jewish Vocational Ser- vice, the Jewish Community Center, Jewish Family Ser- vice and the Jewish Home for Aged. In addition, for many observant people, it is the only hospital where they can get a meal cooked in a 'kosher kitchen. Mezuzot hang on doors and Jewish holidays are celebrated. Rabbis serve as hospital clergy. "What if we don't have a Jewish hospital? Then aren't we powerless?" Dr. Loomus asked. "It would be like hav- ing no AIPAC (American Israel Public Affairs Com- mittee) or Jewish Welfare Federation. Wouldn't we speak as a community with a lot less authority?" For many gentile people, Sinai advocates said, Sinai provides the only opportuni- ty to interact with anyone or anything Jewish. This, they said, can be a pro-active force in combating anti- Semitism. "There is a role for a Jew- ish mission in health care and a Jewish hospital," said Federation Executive Vice President Robert Aronson. "Clearly this is the consen- sus of the officers of the board of the hospital. "As a Federation, we have to do everything we have to do to support Sinai's board to keep the hospital open," Mr. Aronson said. "We would be dim without the entity, but we can't pay for it." ❑
