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 in 1963, [3] closed in 1988, [4] two years after it "was purchased by Asian American doctors." [2]
History
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]
