Amsterdam Memorial Hospital[1][2][3] is a 19th-century-founded medical facility in upstate New York that merged in 2009 with a nearby hospital, using part of a $20 million state grant to pay off accumulated debt.[4]

History

[edit]

The 1889-founded Amsterdam merged with the 1903-founded St Mary's Hospital, a nearby hospital, in 2009.[4][5]

The Amsterdam Memorial facility is primarily for pediatrics and primary care.[6] They had a prior arrangement, initiated in 1993, whereby obstetrical services for its patients were performed at St. Mary's.[7]
